These lodgepole pine trees, first weakened by a needle miner, were later killed by mountain pine beetle. Tenaya Basin, Yosemite National Park. F.C. Craighead is pictured. Photo by: J.M. Miller Date: August 6, 1924 Credit: USDA Forest Service, Pacific Northwest Region, State and Private Forestry, Forest Health Protection. Collection: Bureau of Entomology Collection; La Grande, Oregon. Image: BUR-5513 Additional information about this photo is from the WFIWC archives: "Ghost Forest" beside the Tioga road north of Tenaya Lake in Yosemite N.P., 1924. The forest consisted of over-mature lodgepole pine when it became infested by the mountain pine beetle about 1896. Now, a young stand has begun to renew the forest. The man in lower center is F. C. Craighead, second Chief of the Division of Forest Insect Investigations, USDA Bureau of Entomology. Photo by J.M.
