Photograph of two UNIDENTIFIED men standing in a class III rangeland. The back of the photograph proclaims, “Class III range land. Blue grama grass is very low state of vigor. Invaders are numerous including muhly grass, fluff grass, three-awn, and perennial broomweed. Erosion, moderate to severe indicating that permanent damage is occurring. Recovery on this type of range will be slow, although much change toward the more desirable species can be expected when the use of range is based upon preserving the grama grasses.”
