Comments: | Western yellow pine forest south of Flagstaff, Arizona, logged between 1880 and 1890. Cutting was too heavy for natural reproduction. Most of the trees now seen were too small to bear adequate crops of seed at the time of cutting. There will not be enough timber to justify a second cut within another 100 years. See photo 268420. |
