The image above shows USFS vegetation stand types for the Rice Creek Calwater planning watershed (lower left) based on a 1994 Landsat image. The stand types are only accurate at the one-hectare scale. More than 53% of this Calwater had trees less than 12 inches in diameter as of 1994 but some of non-forest component may be natural grasslands. See Info Links for more information. Taken from the KRIS Big River Map project.
