Description:

Plate 904X. Little Creek Valley 1951 – 2005 Viewed north to Little Creek Valley. Mortensen Canyon is on the lower right. Tall brush now blocks the original photopoint, so the retake was made from the nearest open area on USFS road 076. Pinyon, juniper, oakbrush, curlleaf mountain mahograny, and Utah serviceberry have all increased reducing forage production.
