This view of an ACG cloud forest abandoned pasture, taken on 12 March 1988, 13 years ago, is essentially identical today, despite the fact that it has not been burned in that time, and only lightly grazed as a horse pasture. A pasture treated the same way in the dry forest lowlands just a few kilometers away would now be quite thoroughly covered with a low young forest.
