Zion Canyon Check List, Nature Notes, and Essays

 Sub-Series
Identifier: III

Scope and Contents

These manuscript materials were prepared by Angus M. Woodbury while he was the naturalist at Zion National Park. The checklists are simple compilations of species which Dr. Woodbury encountered in Zion Canyon and the vicinity. The nature notes are 2-3 pages on natural events which Dr. Woodbury witnessed in the Park. Some appear to have been submitted for publication or possibly as a class assignment. The essays are longer--ranging from 4 to 100 pages--and more technical than the nature notes. Some appear to have been the basis for Dr. Woodbury's evening lectures to visitors in Zion Park. If a published version of the essay was available it has been filed with the manuscript copy.
