<br />flange of Characteristics: Buckskin was described and sampled at three locations within the study area (profile description Sites 19, 47, and 511.
<br />Soil pedon descriptions were prepared at en additional 17 sites 126, 51, 57, 61, 64, 67, 71. 79, 82, 83, 86, 96, 97, 98, 119, and 1201. The soil profile was moderately deep at Sites 26, 51.57, and 67. Topsoil salvage
<br />tlepths were also verdied at Ihrea sites (1, 2, and 31. All parameters except B antl C horizon color, gravel content of the B and C horizons, and B horizon texture are within the official range of characteristics. Gravel
<br />content of the lower Bt and C horizons ranges Irom 0 to 20 percent. Texture of the BI horizon is clay, silty clay, silty clay loam, or clay loam. The Bt horizon has a hue of 2.5Y or IOYR, value of 3 Io 7 dry, end 3.5 most.
<br />The C horizon has a hue of 2.SV or l OVR, value of 4 to 7 tlry, and chrome of 2 to 6. Thickness of the mollic eplpetlon ranges from 6 Io 15 inches with a mean of 12 inches. Dominant vegetation at the description sites
<br />include snowberry, big sagebrush, serviceberry, oekbrush, rebbitbrush, arrowleaf halsamrooC western wheatgrass, yarrow, and mint.

<br />Range of Characteristics: Bulkley was described antl sampled at one locaton within the stutly area (profile tlescription Site 371. Soil pedon tlescriptions were Drepare0 at an additional three sites I6, 7, and 201. All
<br />parameters except A, B, antl C horizon color and tlepth to calcareous material ere within the official range of characteristics. The tlepth to uniformly calcareous material ranges from 0 to 1 1 inches. The A horizon has a
<br />value of 4 l0 6 tlry. The Bw horizon has a chrome gf 2 to 4. The C horizon has a hue of l OVR to 2.5V, value of 5 to 7 dry and 4 to 6 moist and a chrome of 0 to 6. Dominant vegetation at the tlescriphon sites include
