Field Note 10-26-12 by Jeff Clarke

Virgin borrower vine plantings beautify the property.

Licorice root grows in the floodplains of the Bitterroot River.

A controlled burn torched several more acres above the Guest House.

The crew continues to deconstruct large sections of barbed wire fence.

We noticed coyote scat four feet in the air on multiple fence posts.

Most metal exclosures that abut the corn field have been mangled.

Sap from cottonwood buds make blood-like patterns on the leaves.

Chickadees hung from bent knapweed stocks and plucked weevil larvae seed heads.
