Description:

Plate 274. WHITE PINE PEAK PAVANT MOUNTAINS 1939-2000 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. Aspen has increased in height, but most stands have not regenerated due to excessive browsing. The dark-colored shrubs are snowberry and currant. Limber pine has increased on White Pine Peak.
