More species to map• Need 30+ observations to map
a species
• Must be geographically distinct
• More observations = greater accuracy
• Need observations for the unmapped species

Leave no trace principles1) Plan ahead & prepare
2) Travel & camp on durable surfaces (stay on trails)
3) Dispose of waste properly
4) Leave what you find (take only photographs)
5) Minimize campfire impacts
6) Respect wildlife (stay 50 yards away)
7) Be considerate of other visitors
