City Nature Challenge: Utah's Wasatch

Joining the fun is as easy as taking a photo!

Nature is all around us in Northern Utah, and we need your help to photograph it during the City Nature Challenge! This 4-day annual event encourages people to find and photograph plants and wildlife in their own cities using iNaturalist. We call our local city Utah's Wasatch (a combination of Box Elder, Cache, Carbon, Davis, Salt Lake, Summit, Utah, Wasatch, and Weber Counties).

Here's how to take part:

Take Photos of Wild Things April 24-27, 2026

This includes wild plants, animals, fungi, etc. that you see in Box Elder, Cache, Carbon, Davis, Salt Lake, Summit, Utah, Wasatch, and Weber counties!
The more photos we take, the more of Utah's biodiversity we record

Add Photos to iNaturalist April 24-May 10, 2026

It's a free platform you can use on a phone or computer. Every observation made within our project boundaries will automatically count towards the 2026 CNC!
