Everglades National Park; National Park Service
View of pine trees with heavy undergrowth. Caption reads: "Photo No. 5 shows a three year rough (buildup of hardwood vegetation and saw palmetto) in pinelands of ENP. This vegetation type in the flora of the forest will continue to grow and increase in height until it reaches the crowns of the pines. If this vegetation is allowed to continue to grow unchecked and is not burned regularly, then a wide-ranging wildfire sometime in the future would probably do irreparable damage to the pine forest."
