The Travertine Springs complex (referred hereafter as Travertine Springs) in Death Valley National Park, California, includes water discharge from several springs and associated runoff drainages. Travertine Springs supports a relatively diverse plant community that has not been mapped prior to this report. This document presents the findings of US Geological Survey (USGS) studies of the Travertine Springs plant communities as requested by the Natural Resources Division of Death Valley National Park. The objectives of this project are: • To characterize the vegetation communities surrounding Travertine Springs and associated washes flowing from the springs, and • To develop a digital map of the vegetation communities using National Vegetation Classification standards
