Technical Abstract: An all-day field trip was conducted on May 19, 2010, as part of the 16th Wildland Shrub Symposium program. The tour consisted of Tour A and Tour B, which visited Utah's west desert shrublands in Park Valley (Tour A), and Bear River Mountains montane shrublands and Hardware Ranch Wildlife Management Area (Tour B). Both tours convened in the early afternoon at Golden Spike National Historic Site at Promontory, Utah, to visit salt desert-sagebrush revegetation research before the last stop to visit broom snakeweed/sagebrush rangeland interaction research conducted on private lands adjacent to ATK along Faust road in Box Elder County.
