Survey Intensity:
very thorough
Population
Population Area:
15 linear feet
More potential habitat to survey:
unsure
Management needs for this population:
Trailing sheep have been bedding here following their crossing of the bridge which appears to have been very detrimental to this population. BLM has approved a temporary let-down fence that will be up while sheep are trailing in an effort to recover this population, beginning in 2021 if funding allows.
