Summaries of vegetation and site data are provided for up to four age classes (5, 10, 20–35, and 35+ years) for seven ecosites in the Lower Foothills Natural Subregion, six ecosites in the Upper Foothills Natural Subregion, and two ecosites in the Subalpine Natural Subregion. Classification keys are included to assist in the identification of ecosites and age classes. Successional and growth trends are presented in tabular and graphic formats. Biodiversity measures comparing diversity within and between subregions are presented. Forest health data are also presented for selected ecosites and age classes in the Lower and Upper Foothills Natural Subregions. Because of field data limitations, not all ecosites are represented, and within each ecosite, not all age classes are represented.
