The Ranger School
The Ranger School State University of New York College of Environmental Science and Forestry Wanakena, New York The SUNY-ESF Ranger School in Wanakena, N.Y., offers students a unique educational experience in a spectacular natural setting. The Ranger School, part of the State University of New York College of Environmental Science and Forestry (ESF), confers the associate in applied science (A.A.S.) degree. The A.A.S. degree can open doors to forest technology, natural resources conservation or land surveying technology careers or it can serve as a hands-on, experience-based step toward a bachelor of science degree. The Ranger School’s one-plus-one plan allows students to complete their first- year degree requirements at the college of their choice, including ESF’s Syracuse campus if admitted as a first-year student. The second-year degree requirements are completed at The Ranger School. Many graduates continue on to complete a bach- elor’s degree program at the ESF Syracuse campus or other colleges and universities. The 2,800-acre campus, located in the heart of the six million-acre Adirondack Park, supports the field-based, hands-on education which is a hallmark of The Ranger School experience. Students learn to use equipment and tools specific to their academic program. The main campus building houses state-of-the-art facilities including classrooms, conference room, library, drafting lab and computer lab. Students also live in the building sharing comfortable residence hall rooms, eating and socializing in the dining center and spending their free time in the enter- tainment and recreation areas. -

September Migration in the Pacific Northwest September 17–25, 2017
WASHINGTON: SEPTEMBER MIGRATION IN THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST SEPTEMBER 17–25, 2017 LEADER: BOB SUNDSTROM LIST COMPILED BY: BOB SUNDSTROM VICTOR EMANUEL NATURE TOURS, INC. 2525 WALLINGWOOD DRIVE, SUITE 1003 AUSTIN, TEXAS 78746 WWW.VENTBIRD.COM WASHINGTON: SEPTEMBER MIGRATION IN THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST September 17–25, 2017 By Bob Sundstrom The rush of migration in September concentrates birds along Washington and southern British Columbia’s mountain ridges, coastal shorelines, and over the ocean itself. The September Migration in the Pacific Northwest tour takes full advantage of nature’s timing to showcase shorebirds, seabirds, and songbirds in the midst of southward migration. It seemed like each species we encountered had a unique story to tell: seabirds headed south to such different destinations as Antarctica, New Zealand, and Chile. Shorebirds passing through en route to Central and South America, as well as shorebirds arriving to winter in the Northwest. Post- breeding migrants that had just come north—pelicans, gulls, cormorants—arriving from Baja and places south along the Pacific Coast to reach food-rich waters of the Northwest. And loons and scoters coming south from nesting on tundra ponds across the Arctic, as Fox and Golden-crowned sparrows also arrived from northern breeding areas. The 2017 tour enjoyed superb weather, an admirable list of birds, a wonderfully congenial group, plus great food and a memorable journey through the scenic Northwest. We birded from Seattle to the Pacific Coast and then north along the Olympic Peninsula before crossing to Whidbey Island and then on to British Columbia—a loop that ran all the way from Willapa Bay in southwest Washington to Boundary Bay in southeast British Columbia. -
Chapter 15: Wildland Fire
Chapter 15: Wildland Fire When Everglades National Park was established in 1947, the long-standing NPS policy was to suppress all wildfires in parks, whether caused by lightning or human activity. The NPS was not alone in this; at the time, fire suppression was standard pol- icy for all federal government land managers. NPS fire policies had been developed in the forests of the western states and for the most part echoed the policies of the U.S. Forest Service. The geology and vegetation of South Florida, as well as the region’s cultural attitudes and practices regarding fire, differed sharply from the western experi- ence. Additionally, combating fires with traditional techniques exposed Everglades fire fighters to considerable hardship and danger, because of the region’s solution holes, exposed limestone rock, sawgrass, palmetto, muck, and insects. All of these factors produced a relationship with fire at Everglades National Park that was unique within the Service. The park played a key role in the evolution of national wildland fire pol- icies. Research done in the Everglades by park biologist Dr. Bill Robertson Jr. in the 1950s added much to the general understanding of the role of fire in ecosystems and led to the park’s program of prescribed burning, the first such program in the NPS. The Everglades fire experience then helped to shape what historian Stephen J. Pyne has called fire’s “cultural revolution” in the 1960s and thereafter. In this revolution, the idea that fires should be prevented whenever possible and always fought when they broke out gave way to an understanding that: 1) fire was a part of the natural order, 2) some fires should be allowed to burn, and 3) prescribed burns were often beneficial. -
