Natural reproduction on the north-slope strip clearcut, hereafter referred to as 

 the "vegetative recovery plot," was well established by 1945. A species survey 20 years 

 later showed 3,320 stems per acre, consisting of 60 percent western redcedar and 20 per- 

 cent western hemlock. Heights of most saplings ranged from 10 ft (3 m) to over 15 ft 

 (4.6 m) . The south face quickly brushed over and as a consequence, the present stand 

 is poorly to fairly well stocked with stems of the three original species (fig. 3).
