Excerpt from Forest Resources of Southern Montana A survey of Montana's forests was begun in 1934 as a part of a Nation-wide inventory of the forest resources. Interrupted by the war, this survey was resumed in 1946 and is now about 90 percent complete. Present plans contemplate finishing the survey in 1949 to give Montana the first real measure of its forest wealth. Statistics for 23 counties in Northern and Central Montana and for that portion of the state west of the Continental Divide have been published previously.
