Description:
Plate 275. WHITE PINE CREEK PAVANT MOUNTAINS 1955-2000 Viewed northwest across the upper portion of White Pine Creek in the Pavant Mountains. This area was gully-plugged, contour-trenched, and reseeded by the Forest Service in 1962 to control erosion. The dark-colored shrubs are snowberry and currant. Aspen has increased in height but failed to regenerate due to excessive browsing. Shown is the first terrace below USFS Road 096. This terrace has largely silted-in.
