Present grass and grasslike composition is estimated as 60 percent Carex, Stipa, and Bouteloua; 30 percent Koeleria, Poa, and Aristida; and 10 per- cent Calamovilfa and Andropogon. One distinct differ- ence is the absence of the Bouteloua hirsuta recorded in 1960. Density and cover of Pinus ponderosa has continued to steadily increase since 1909. Pocket gopher activity is visible in the 1998 photo. Notes also indicate the presence of horses on this site in 1998. 33
