Summary

[edit]
Description

Twenty-three acres of primarily invasive, non-native grasses were burned yesterday, Oct. 22, 2015, at the BLM’s Lower Table Rock. This is the first time the BLM has conducted a prescribed fire on top of the rock, reported the BLM Medford District.

Currently, non-native grasses have created a buildup of thatch in a very unique habitat on top of Table Rocks. Non-native species such as medusahead rye, downy brome and bulbous bluegrass are covering native species on the mounded prairie.
