Tra Veler Ser Vices TRAVELER SERVICES TRAVELER 88 VISITMT.COM TRAVELER SERVICES www.visitmt.com/travelerservices · 800.847.4868 You’re ready to come to Montana, but you’re wondering—is there really a train there? Will the national parks be open? Are there buses to the ski hills? Use these Traveler Services to show up prepared, informed and practically passing for a local. GETTING HERE It’s easiest to explore Montana by car, so if you aren’t already driving here, make plans to rent a vehicle once you arrive. Fly into larger towns or roll in aboard Amtrak’s Empire Builder (traversing the northern half of the state), then drive a rental from wherever you land. If you plan on hitting backroads and gravel, or even just iffy weather, upgrade to four-wheel-drive for more traction. A high-clearance vehicle is necessary only for a few limited remote destinations like well-off-the-beaten-path trailheads. You can also tour the state via commercial bus lines, which travel to major cities and some smaller towns, or join private bus tours. AIR TRAVEL Direct flights (some seasonal) are available from Seattle, San Francisco, SERVICES TRAVELER Los Angeles, Las Vegas, Salt Lake City, Phoenix, Denver, Minneapolis/St. Paul, Newark, Chicago, Portland and Atlanta.

Fischer INTERMOUNTAIN FOREST AND RANGE EXPERIMENT STATION U.S. DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE FOREST SERVICE OGDEN, UTAH 84401 THE AUTHOR WILLIAM C. FISCHER is a research forester for the Fire Effects and Use Research and Development Program, at the Northern Forest Fire Laboratory. His current assignment is to develop techniques and procedures for applying existing research knowledge to the task of producing improved operational fire management plans, with special emphasis on fire use, fuel treatment, and fuel management plans. Mr. Fischer received his bachelor's degree in forestry from the University of Michigan in 1956. From 1956 to 1966, he did Ranger District and forest staff work in timber management and fire control on the Boise National Forest. RESEARCH SUMMARY Four series of color photographs show different levels of ,downed woody material resulting from natural processes in four forest cover types in Montana. Each photo is supplemented by inventory data describing the size, weight, volume, and condition of the debris pictured. A subjective evaluation of potential fire behavior under an average bad fire weather situation is given.

  • Collaborative Efforts in Montana and Contact Information: Below Are the Public Land Collaborative Efforts in Montana, Both Past and Present, of Which We Are Aware
    Collaborative efforts in Montana and contact information: Below are the public land collaborative efforts in Montana, both past and present, of which we are aware. They are all addressing a range of public land management issues including active forest management, recreation, wilderness, economic development and conservation. Not all are specifically addressing Wilderness Study Areas (WSAs). Each has a unique story and offers lessons on what works, regardless of whether their efforts encompass one of the 7 wilderness study areas identified in SJ 20. More information about many of these collaboratives can be found through the Montana Forest Collaboration Network (MFCN) which assists collaborative groups across Montana in forest and grassland restoration, conservation and resource utilization for the benefit of all. The enclosed report, Collaboration at a Crossroads, also includes several case studies highlighting the issues collaboration faces in Montana in more depth. Beaverhead Deerlodge Partnership/ Forest Jobs and Recreation Act This collaboration included the timber industry, conservation and recreation working to provide wood products and jobs; achieve significant fish and wildlife habitat restoration; protect public land and ensure access for future generations; and support a robust recreation economy including motorized and non-motorized use. It is no longer active.
