  • BOTANICAL NOTES and OBSERVATIONS: Cook Ranch, Albany County, Wyoming
    BOTANICAL NOTES AND OBSERVATIONS: Cook Ranch, Albany County, Wyoming Prepared by : Bonnie Heidel, Botanist Wyoming Natural Diversity Database - University of Wyoming 30 August 2001 Cook Ranch encompasses the matrix grassland and sagebrush steppe of the Laramie basin, and a segment of the Laramie Range escarpment with predominantly shrubland and grassland cover. Characteristic palustrine and riverine features are inlaid on these basin and escarpment landscapes, contributing to plant species and vegetation diversity. Laramie Basin grassland Mixed grass prairie is the most extensive vegetation feature, with a sparse, low-stature component of Wyoming big sagebrush (Artemisia tridentata ssp. wyomingensis) over most of the vast, well-drained alluvial fans and terraces. Sagebrush cover drops out at the north end on finer­ textured soils, with patches of silver sagebrush (Artemisia cana). In the grasslands, only Sandberg's bluegrass and junegrass (Poa secunda and Koeleria macrantha, resp.) were conspicuous at the time of visit. Dominants and codominants among the grassland plant associations include at least needle-and-thread, western wheatgrass, and thread­ leaved sedge (Stipa coma ta, Elymus smithii, and Carex filifolia, resp.). Cover composition estimates and plant association characterizations were not made because foot travel was concentrated on unrepresentative overlook points, the drought restricted some species from heading out to bias the windshield survey, and this investigator did not have firsthand experience in the setting. The many ridges and rims associated with the rolling topography support many plains cushion plant species including Phlox muscoides, Haplopappus acaulis, Arenaria hookeri, Astragalus spathulatus and Eriogonum .. The grassland communities showed little or no skewing of plant composition under a long history of grazing.
