Description September8, 1999 Photopoint to Road Grasses. Poa secunda, Agropyron spicatum, Agropy ron smithii. Bromus japonicus, Carexjilifolia Shrubs. Sarcobatus vermiculatus, Artemisia tridentata Beyond Road Grasses. Agropyron smithii, Poa secunda, Bromus japonicus, Bromus tectorum, Bouteloua gracilis, Buchloe dactyloides Shrubs and Trees. Sarcobatus vermiculatus, Artemisia tridentata, Populus deltoides Synopsis In the 1917 photo, an old road is visible and more sagebrush is growing in the foreground than in more recent photos. Populus deltoides trees present in 1917 showed a significant increase in size on both drainages until 1959. However, 1998 gave a significantly different result, with Populus deltoides density and size reducing in the closer drainage and very little change in the distant creek. By 1959, a more permanent gravel road was established, and a ponded area is visible on the left side of the photo. After 1959, a few more buildings were constructed. 81
