Creator Transcript
  • 113 May 12, 1950. Ashnola River. Climbed from cabin onto flatiron range. First flat badly overgrazed, no grass carryover at all. Dry type of range with quite a lot of rock showing. Flora showed Lewisia quite common, Bigeloma sparse + heavily browsed, some Artemisia tridentata on exposed highly isolated slopes. Pseudotsuga abundant. The young firs all heavily browsed + highlined. Cattle all over the range. Then climbed to next range area just n. [north] of Juniper Creek. This area also heavily overgrazed. scattered Junipers. Proceeded across Juniper Cr. [Creek] + onto South slope here found an excellent area of sheep range with plenty of carryover of excellent Agropyron. The only cattle use of this basin seems to be on the flat below where there has been a salting station. Apparently lack of water forces a withdrawal early in the summer. This area is shown on the map as a game reserve but was not enforced during 1947 open season
