Upper Valley

Description:

Plate 388X. Upper Valley 1942 - 2003 Viewed north in Upper Valley south of Utah Highway 12. The original image was taken as the area was being reseeded with crested wheatgrass after first being root-plowed to eliminate sagebrush. Sagebrush, however, has reinvaded the site and it is now difficult to tell the area was ever treated. Utah Highway 12 is visible in the retake.
