Collections of liverworts in the northwest might be done near Opal Creek, Salem, Oregon; almost anywhere in the Olympics along the Interstate corridor (except off federal land); and I believe a few areas in the Cascades are open. Just to be on the safe side, warn your friends not to collect anything in a national park or forest. The 1994 Northwest Forest Plan has protections against harming bryophytes on every managed federal land in the NW under the Endangered Species Act.
