Landscape Narrative |
Very homogeneous - exceptionally so (typical of type) with POL AMP in patches, ELE OVA patchy as well. -- This occurrence includes the wetland on Poison Flats: "Prairie Dog Lake". It's extent varies greatly depending on the year's precipitation. 1998 has been relatively wet, and so Prairie Dog Lake is large. Condition is excellent - no weeds. However, the surrounding prairie dog town is quite weedy. Some bison use but not heavily trampled.
