Poker Flat

November 3, 2019 by Michael Kauffmann Leave a Comment

By Rees Hughes

My wife, Amy, and I just spent the past couple of days enjoying beautiful fall weather in the Klamath Mountains. We camped at Poker Flat on the Bigfoot Trail and explored the nearby Port Orford-cedar Botanical Reserve and the stands of Noble Fir that survived the 2018 Natchez Fire.  It was a great opportunity to work on differentiating between the abundant Incense-cedar and the rare Port Orford-cedar.

The two sets of needles on the outside are Port Orford-cedar with their telltale stomatal bloom in the shape of an ‘x’ on the underside, the middle needles are from an Incense-cedar.
