The High Glacial Drift-Filled Valleys ecoregion contains terraces, outwash plains, moraines, wetlands, and hills that are much less rugged and less forested than Ecoregion 16k. Originally, sedges and rushes were common on wet soils, bunchgrasses and mountain big sagebrush occurred on drier soils, and lodgepole pine and ponderosa pine grew on valley floors. Winters are cold and snowy. Ecoregion 16g receives large amounts of spring runoff from mountain snow pack. It is summer pasture for large numbers of livestock; cropland and growing residential and recreational developments also occur. Flood irrigation and grazing have raised sediment and phosphorus levels in streams.
