Vegetation Study
Week 3: The Columbia George to South Cle Elum
The expedition hopes to make a comprehensive longitudinal study of the vegetational patterns across the state of Washington. In order to accomplish this, they are doing a vegetational survey every five miles. Note some of the actual sights have had to be adjusted due to trail closures. When this occurs, a study is done immediately upon rejoining the trail and the five-mile increments are reset to reflect this change.
