Species range
Using Geocat and data exported from Utah Rare Plant Database August 2020 the Extent of Occurrence is 48. 085 km2 based on 45 user points.
Very Narrow Endemic to Logan Canyon in Cache county, Utah (Tilley et al. 2011).
Threats or limiting factors
Primary threats are road construction and water line development. Collecting, rock climbing, and other recreational activities are also ongoing threats (England 1990, Tilley et al. 2011). The USU Logan Canyon Climbing Management Plan for the Uinta-Wasatch-Cache National Forest, Logan Ranger District (2017) specifically addressed management in relation to climbing and increasing public awareness as well as outreach to climbing community has greatly reduced the threat to this species in regards to climbing. Introduction of mountain goats may also threaten this species.
