This photo shows the Horse Creek Uplands. The land ownership here is National Forest and private industrial timberland owners on alternating square miles. This "checkerboard" pattern reflects railroad land grants that have passed intact from railroad companies to timber companies over the years. Both Horse and Beaver Creek have very high road densities as well as high rates of timber harvest. Photo contributed by Michael Hentz 2002.
