The purpose of the inventory is to collect range data for of Utah's deer management herds. Emphasis is placed on areas of criticnl winter range or other areas that may be limiting facLrs. Major objectives of the study are to determine for each herd unit the limits, elevation, and vegetative types of summer, and intermediate winter, ranges. Vegetative composition, percent ground cover, and pounds of available forage are also determined, and land ownership is mapped. Summers are spent gathering data for later analysis, and surveying the herd units under study. The work is accomplished by university students hired for the summer and supervised by biologists from the Division. During the winter, data are compiled, maps made, areas plotted, and the results published in book form. The data can then be used by game managers to aid them in (tetermining carrying capacity, migration routes, critical range areas, and proper management of the herd unit. 8-- John Zetterqulst, Grig Clawson, Belmont Anderson, Greg Snow, Steve Lackey, Clayton Christensen, Terry Madsen, Doug Richards, and Craig Drury.

I'm really proud of them and five or six of them should be a big help to us next year." The fifth starter and leading scorer was Greg Snow, a 7 forward from Highland.

BYU averaged 100.8 points compared to 87.5 for the opposition.
