Observation Narrative
Reproduction strongly in PINCON despite preburn composition probably not being PINCON in the main; the downed boles (some blacked and charred) are possibly responsible for the tan signature or high reflectivity; shrubs occur in patches but overall on this
Red Bench Fire of 1988 burned with stand-replacing results; previous composition was mature PSEMEN-LAROCC (with PINCON?); trees to 100+ ft.; almost total canopy mortality on this aspect with some very scattered LAROCC surviving; most boles have blown over
Animal, general
AMEALN heavily browsed; deer pellets; animal trail across slope.
