Cameron Wash Allotment Fence

Description:

Plate 115X. Cameron Wash Allotment Fence 1963-2002 Viewed east along the Cameron Wash Allotment Fence. The fence had just been built when the original photo was taken. The sign was not permanent but apparently was moved form place to place to document various range improvement projects. The density of black sagebrush is less on the right side of the fence today as that area was root plowed and reseeded during the early 1960’s. Vehicle access for fenceline construction has also reduced the density of black sage plants immediately south (right) of the fence. Pinyon, juniper, and ponderosa pine have all increased on the distant hillsides.
