In September 2006 this site was covered with mature jack pine forest. In the next five years two small plots along the north boundary were logged. In 2011, timber harvesting began. |
 |
||||
By August, 2013, less than half of the native jack pine forest remained. |
 |
||||
The logged area is being allowed to regenerate to jack pine forest from the seed bank in the ground and from residual jack pines along the edges. |
 |
||||
Note the pine seedlings in the foreground. These photos were taken four years after the area was harvested. |
