Comments: Exclosure fenceline is tied into Mirage Lake.
It is a large complex exclosure containing an upland, forest,
open range, and a riparian alkaline area. The open range uplands
along the lake was reseeded during the 1970's under the A.R.D.S.A.
funding program. Most indications of the range reseeding are now
gone.
