Plants that Linda Kunze recorded on Manny’s Prairie that are useful to the Makah include: Blech- num spicant, Cornus canadensis, Gaultheria shallon, Ledum groenlandicum, Lysichitum americanum, Pteridium aquilinum, Vaccinium ovatum, and Vaccinium parvifolium. Linda Kunze’s Survey of Allen’s Slough [Allen’s Prairie] “27 acres open bog and 26 acres bog forest along Allens Slough, S.W. end Lake Ozette. Long narrow wetland system on either side of Allens slough, slow moving stream of brown water with beaver activity. Wetland in sphagnum, sedge and heath peat with woody material in bog forest. Open bog is dominated by Myrica gale (MYGA). In places MYGA is 5-6’ tall, forming dense thickets over sphagnum moss. Sanguisorba, Spirea douglasii, Pyrus fusca and Carex sitchensis may also be prominant. In places MYGA is 1 foot tall and is codom. [codominant] with Sanguisorba, Carex livida and sometimes Dodecatheon jeffreyi, C. ph, llomanica, C. rostrata, C. sitchensis. A few areas are dom. by C. sitchensis but have the other species in the understory. The site appears in excellent condition. There is a series of lines, oriented eastwest, at the south end of the site. These may be section-township lines created by surveyors. Most are shallow channels now. The bog forest is mostly on the south. & west sides of the slough. That near the NW was not surveyed but will be included in site #118. Near the open bog it tends to have more PICO and avey from the bog were THPL. MYGA and other open bog species occur in the forested bog. But also GASH & VAOV. Peat soils, very wet. Small streams, c & springs and surface water. Losts of supersaturated mud holes. A few cut trees found west of 11: pole sized. Northern 1/3 of slough bog is a mosaic of MYGA SPOO/CHORS. This site includes small bog NW and upstream of slough (see community survey form for Allens Bay Bog) Forests between slough-Bay and Pacific Ocean are not wetlands for the most part. They are THPL\VAOV that appear to have been burned in the past.” Linda Kunze records the presence of lodgepole pine (Pinus contorta) at Allen’s Prairie which C. Leo Hitchcock and Arthur Cronquist (1973:62) say is found “often in pure stands in areas long since burned over.” Plants that Linda Kunze recorded on Allen’s Slough (Allen’s Prairie) that are useful to the Makah include: Blechnum spicant, Carex obnupta, Carex sitchensis, Cornus canadensis, Gaultheria shallon, Ledum groenlandicum, Maianthenum dilatatum, Pteridium aquilinum, Pyrus fusca, Vaccinum ovatum, Vaccinum parvifolium, and Vaccinium oxycoccos. 75
Linda Kunze’s Survey of Sand Point Trail Prairie “90 acre area along Sand Point Trail, Lake Ozette. Burned in past and some logging. Appears to be regenerating. THPL-TSHE/GASH-VAOV forest communities. Highly grazed/browsed and trampled in places so open. Pocket wetlands with sphagnum and ‘prairie’ veg. These appear to be being encroached upon by conifers. A rectangular hold line with logs may be an old well. It is located in the wetland at the far north end of the site. If it is a well, it suggests that the site may have been homesteaded as were most of the ‘prairies’ in the area.” Plants that Linda Kunze recorded on Ahlstrom’s Prairie that are useful to the Makah include: Blechnum spicant, Carex obnupta, Cornus canadensis, Empetrum nigrum, Gaultheria shallon, Ledum groenlandicum, Lycopodium clavatum, Maianthenum dilatatum, Pteridium aquilinum, Pyrus fusca, Rhamnus purshiana, Vaccinum ovatum, and Vaccinium oxycoccos. 76
