Description:
Plate 273. WHITE PINE PEAK PAVANT MOUNTAINS 1955-2000 Viewed northeast to White Pine Peak in the Pavant Mountains. This area was gully-plugged, contour-trenched, and reseeded by the Forest Service to control erosion. The men in the original are surveying for a contour-trench. Aspen has increased in height, but most stands have not regenerated due to excessive browsing. Limber pine has increased on White Pine Peak and radio towers have also been added.
