FIRE EFFECTS
SPECIES: Pinus aristata | Rocky Mountain Bristlecone Pine 



IMMEDIATE FIRE EFFECT ON PLANT : 
Fire plays a minor role in bristlecone pine habitats due to sparse
ground cover.  Although scattered dead and living trees show evidence of
fires, undergrowth is scarce with essentially no sign of past fires.  In
these areas undergrowth consists of small shrubs, cushion plants, and
xerophytic bunchgrasses [7].
