LANDFIRE's [Existing Vegetation Type, Cover and Height](https://landfire.gov/vegetation.php){target="blank"} datasets describe vegetation conditions.
* Existing Vegetation Type (EVT) - represents the current distribution of the terrestrial ecological systems classification, developed by NatureServe for the western hemisphere, through 2016
* Existing Vegetation Cover (EVC) - represents the vertically projected percent cover of the live canopy layer for a 30-m cell
* Existing Vegetation Height (EVH) - represents the average height of the dominant vegetation for a 30-m cell
[Read more about LANDFIRE Vegetation Products](https://landfire.gov/vegetation.php){target="blank"}
## Summary
* As with the past, the Rocky Mountain Subalpine Dry-Mesic Spruce-Fir Forest and Woodland is most dominant EVT, mapped at 16% of the subregion.
* No agricultural or developed types landed in the top 10 EVTs.
* Trees are the most dominant life form, covering ~70% of the area.

## Existing Vegetation Cover
The Existing Vegetation Cover (EVC) map is a visual representation of EVC classifications across the subregion. The chart below the map provides a breakdown of each vegetation cover classification and their relative dominance across the subregion
From this information, we can see that the majority of this subregion is classified as “tree,” comprising approximately 70% of the vegetation cover.

## Existing Vegetation Height
The Existing Vegetation Height (EVH) map showcases EVH across the subregion. The chart below the map provides the percentage of the landscape represented by each EVH height.
LANDFIRE maps trees as the most dominant life form, with most being between 10 - 20m tall.
