Schultz D. 2005. Exotic plant management: Klondike Gold Rush National Historical Park. Klondike Gold Rush National Historical Park
In 2005 a natural shift from exotic plant inventory to control was made on the Klondike Gold Rush National Historical Park (KLGO). Survey data collected in 2000 and 2004 were used this spring to develop an exotic plant control plan. In 2005, a total of 317 hours were devoted to exotic plant management. A total of 23 exotic plant species were found. This number includes 3 new plants, bird vetch (Vicia cracca), common tansy (Tanacetum vulgare), and sticky ragwort (Senecio viscosus). 221 hours where spent in manually removing exotics with 114 hours devoted solely to the removal of common eyebright (Euphrasia nemorosa) in Nelson Slough.
