Following a number of years of severe drought, vegetation on the site <br />appeared vigorous and abundant. The site appears visually as good as <br />is has appeared since initial zeseeding. Even or. the south-facing <br />slopes of the reclaimed area, vegetation appeared tall, green, and <br />healthy. Grasses included western wheatgrass, smoo*_h brome, and green <br />needlegrass. Numerous unknown forbs are also present, including <br />bindweed. Shrubs identified include rubber rabbitbrush, four-wing <br />saltbush, and winterfat. Cattle were not visible on the reclaimed area <br />and there was no evidence that cattle had grazed the site this season. <br />Vegetation appears to be capable of preventing excessive erosion as <br />long as grazing is managed. <br />1 ~ <br />~.. `1t <br />~. <br />~;;.~ .. ~ .m:.. -~ <br />;,. ;, <br />.n AIL.'. r M ~•:1S ;, <br />it ~M' L ~~~~ ~ ~~ <br />:, <br />e. s, ,1'~ tr H ~~,., <br />
