Fish planting is one of the big jobs a ranger had to do in summer. ... It was done by loading the fry in pack cans, usually five gallon cans, then transporting the cans by truck and pack mules to the lakes and streams in the remote areas of [Yosemite National] Park. This moving of the fry had to be done with great care to insure that the temperature of the water in the cans was held within a few degrees to the water temperature of the hatchery where they were spawned.

Planting. Planting of excellence is also systematic. It articulates and strengthens the site layout. It develops an interrelated pattern of open, closed, or semienclosed spaces, each shaped to suit its planned function. Planting extends topographical forms, enframes views and vistas, anchors freestanding buildings, and provides visual transitions from object to object and place to place. It serves as backdrop, windscreen, and sunshield. It checks winter winds. It catches and channels the summer breeze. It casts shadow and shade. It absorbs precipitation, freshens the air, and modifies climatic extremes.

Les plantations. Les végétaux apportent les couleurs les plus variées et développent au cours des saisons le film des manifestations successives de la vie végétale. (...) La plantation, comme l'organisation générale du jardin, doit être conçue dans son ensemble. Elle réunit en un paysage harmonieux des éléments qui possèdent leurs caractéristiques propres. (...) un arbre n'apporte pas seulement une tache de couleur, une silhouette au contour plus ou moins précis et indéfinissable, mais aussi et surtout le volume de son branchage et de sa masse feuillée.
