In an effort to recognize those people who are out on the landscape making the most observations, the top Observers will be documented. Hopefully, this will create a new category of environmental hero, and encourage more people to become familiar with the species they share the landscape with.
1) Top 3 Observers in each:
-County in Idaho, Montana, Oregon, Washington, and Wyoming (sorted alphabetically)
-Regional District (British Columbia)
-Division (Alberta)
-and then Yukon and Northwest Territory;
2) Top 10 in each state, and in the Canadian provinces;
3) Top 50 in the NRMBC.

I think that Powell County, MT you listed by "uderma" was actually me (Euderma). It's great to see so many iNatters out there.
Thanks for catching that error! I fixed some others that I noticed, too. Hopefully this will be a platform to give people like you recognition for your knowledge of the landscape. You don't mind being recognized in this way, do you?
Not a bit. I hope this would inspire others to notice the diversity around them, even if they are not interested in documenting it. If I had more time, I would do a lot more. I am way behind in processing and uploading pictures from this summer right now. I really enjoy it.
Thank you for your work on this project.
