Meet the Author - Whitney Tilt

The greater Yellowstone Region is a land accented by wildflowers—from diminutive orchids to plants that flower once every 60 years. Taken together, their forms, colors, and habits are diverse and compelling. Designed for easy use, Flora of the Yellowstone presents a clear overview of each species, complete with photos and illustrations, botanical description, preferred habitats, and interesting tidbits on the plant’s ecology and cultural use. Species are organized by family, and a quick-reference guide in the front displays flowers and distinctive fruits by color.

Whitney Tilt serves as Director of Land and Wildlife Conservation for the Arthur M. Blank Family Foundation where his principal responsibilities are working with the Mountain Sky Guest Ranch in Emigrant, Montana to ensure it is a best-in-class leader in land and wildlife conservation management, and addressing larger natural resource issues in the Yellowstone ecosystem. Whitney is also a partner in High Country Apps LLC, developing interactive field guides for smart phones and tablets. He earned a Master of Environmental Science from the Yale School of Forestry and began his introduction to the Greater Yellowstone Region by ranching in the Tetons of Idaho.
