Figure 24.  A cut border isolates a regenerated lodgepole pine stand from an adjacent, mistletoe-infested stand. The young regeneration established naturally after a clearcut. Some 10 years after establishment, the infested border was cut back about 20 meters, just farther than dwarf mistletoe seeds can shoot. This was necessary because the original cut was less than 20 acres. Then the regeneration is sanitized while thinning to remove any infected trees. [courtesy P. Angwin] BACK
