Ecoregion in Rocky Mountains in ID, WY

Generate High-Quality PDF

The steep, dry Partly Forested Mountains vary in elevation from about 6,000 to over 9,000 feet. Soils have a cryic temperature regime and are rocky and shallow. They support open-canopied forests, shrublands, and grasslands; Douglas-fir, lodgepole pine, and aspen are most common on north-facing slopes and gently sloping uplands while mountain big sagebrush and mountain brush dominate south- facing slopes. Its vegetation is distinct from surrounding ecoregions. Ecoregion 17o is used as summer range and for timber production.
