Creator Transcript
  • Banff, Alta. [Alberta] June 2/43. [1943] (contd [continued]) In the Beaver meadow elk + moose had been working about 50-50. Growth is slow [word crossed out] late. Took a Fragaria, a blue Viola [underlined] + Rubus borealis (arcticus?) in flower - but dominant sedges etc [etcetera] are not in bloom yet. Grazed [word crossed out] Browsed to capacity but a heavy carry over of grass + sedge. In Black spruce muskeg dominant plants are 2 codominant sedges - a coarse leaved, silvery one not yet in flower + a very fine one flowering Shrubs - Betula fontinalis, cinquefoil, + Ledum about equally abundant On the drier knolls Empetrum + bearberry. Some small flowering plants collected. Moose [underlined] utilization entirely [underlined] + very light. Betula not appreciably browsed but had been heavily worked in former years. On gravelly strip adjoining stream about 7-8 miles along willows 90-95% browsed + many of them dead most others dying. Here Poplar used 70% + surviving Lonicera (invol. [involucrata]?) fairly abundant + used about 40%. Juniperus scopulorum [underlined] is a starvation browse + is not used here at all.
