Restoration Walks: Prairie Restoration - Dalles Mountain Ranch, Columbia Hills State Park
Bob Hansen will lead the walk of the Columbia Plateau project area, which was the site of high density drill seeding of cultivar grasses ('Secar' bluebunch wheatgrass) in the 1990s. Over time the cultivars have repressed native sage steppe prairie species. The project tests the feasibility of prescriptive cattle grazing for restoration, implementing three grazing regimes (minimal, moderate, and dense grazing). The goal is to restore ecological functionality, return native flora and fauna, and remove invasive species as possible.

The hike will focus on comparing the flora conditions of:
- on-site natural areas never seeded with cultivars
- Areas seeded with cultivars in the 1990s and a)never grazed, b)grazed prior to 2012, c)grazing in the Fall of 2012.
