First Retake and 

 Description 



June 30, 1958. W.S.P., 

 D-8-1958. 



Forest mainly of Ponderosa 

 pines shows remarkable 

 recovery. Agropyron smithii 

 is still the dominant plant in 

 both pictures, however, the 

 1927 photograph shows 

 much Psoralea tenuiflora. 

 This plant was rare when 

 the photograph was retaken 

 and found only along the 

 roadside. Melilotus officinalis 

 and Bromus tectorum were 

 common throughout this 

 area, although they are not 

 mentioned in Dr. Shantz' 

 original notes. The shrubs 

 under the trees are Rosa 

 spp. (from Phillips 1963, 

 p. 99).
