South Dakota's Forest Resources Outside the Black Hills National Forest, 1996.

摘要

As we indicated in the Foreword, information in this report pertains largely to South Dakota's timberland outside of the Black Hills National Forest (BHNF). In 1996, there were 664 thousand acres of forest land1 in South Dakota outside the BHNF. We estimate that the BHNF contains 959 thousand acres of forest land. Therefore, within South Dakota, there are an estimated 1.6 million acres of forest land. In the Appendix, supplemental table 53 provides estimates of timberland area by stand size class for the State, including the BHNF. Again, this report and the following highlights pertain to the forest outside of the BHNF.
