Results from the Cariboo grazing trail confirm those from previous ones on lodgepole pine-pinegrass summer range near Kamloops. They also suggest that similar results could be expected in other regions with ecologically similar sites. Yearling steers in the Cariboo district had a 3-year average daily gain of 1.74 lb. for 97 days starting in early June. The average gain per acre was 17.8 lb. The average carrying capacity was 4.6 acres/animal unit month.Type
