Trip leader David Kuenzli behind the camera. If you’ve recently hiked to Barr Camp you would have noticed a lot of new construction activity. A new foundation was GOOSE CREEK TRAIL – SHAFT HOUSE TRIP, JULY 1 installed under the log cabin structure Fred Barr completed in By Carol Schmitz 1924, along with a new composite porch and some new bridges that now allow the caretakers to safely retrieve supplies from the Mountain View storage. The project has now been completed. Your Pikes Peak Group helped preserve and renovate this historical icon by making a $1,000 donation. If you haven’t made a trip to either spend the night or just for the exercise, it’s a wonderful six-mile adventure.

  • Published Proceedings from the CWD Forum
    PROCEEDINGS Jackson Hole Chronic Wasting Disease Forum December 7, 2016 National Museum of Wildlife Art Jackson, Wyoming INTRODUCTION The purpose of this Chronic Wasting Disease forum was to highlight CWD research and management considerations, with the goal to share current science-based information with the general public and all organizations concerned with the long-term health of elk and deer populations in the Jackson Hole Area. ABSTRACTS *Names of presenters in bold text Wyoming Chronic Wasting Disease Surveillance Mary Wood, State Veterinarian, Wildlife Veterinary Research Services, Wyoming Game and Fish Department, Laramie, Wyoming, USA Chronic Wasting Disease (CWD) was first described in captive mule deer from Colorado and Wyoming in the 1970’s (Williams 1980). After the initial discovery and description of this disease, the Wyoming Game and Fish Department (WGFD) began collaborative work with Dr. Elizabeth Williams in 1982 to investigate whether the disease was present in free-ranging populations (Williams 1992, Miller 2000). This was the beginning of a decades-long surveillance program to study the distribution and spread of this disease in free-ranging cervid populations. Between 1982 and 1997 a limited number of CWD samples were collected through local check stations near Laramie and Wheatland WY. WGFD surveillance began in earnest in 1997, with peak surveillance occurring between 2003 and 2011 when federal funding was available. Currently the WGFD Wildlife Health Laboratory tests between 1500 and 3500 samples for CWD each year with over 56,000 samples tested to date in Wyoming. Surveillance includes voluntary sample collection from hunter harvested animals as well as collection from road-killed animals and targeted animals showing signs consistent with CWD.

  • A Publication of the Wyoming Native Plant Society
    Castilleja A Publication of the Wyoming Native Plant Society Mar 2004, Volume 23, No. 1 www.uwyo.edu/wyndd/wnps/wnps_home.htm Adventures in Laramie-Peak-Land By Hollis Marriott What does it take to convert a middle- aged construction worker with a big 4-WD pickup truck into a field botanist looking for rare plants? “Impossible!” you are probably thinking to yourself. But strange things can happen in the land of the Laramie Batholith and the Central Metamorphic Complex. The Laramie columbine, Aquilegia laramiensis, is endemic to the Laramie Mountains in southeast Wyoming. It was discovered by Aven Nelson in 1895 on a botanizing trip on and around Laramie Peak. The flowers of this little columbine are nodding, and are borne among the leaves. They have greenish-white to lavender sepals, and cream to lavender petals with spurs less than 10 mm long. Prior to the 2003 field season, Aquilegia laramiensis was known from just 12 sites, two of which were considered historical without precise location data. Most were in the northern part of the Laramie Mountains, in the vicinity of Laramie Peak. The columbine also occurs on Ragged Top Mountain about 60 miles to the south, and Char Delmatier found it roughly halfway Aquilegia laramiensis, by Isobel Nichols between Laramie Peak and Ragged Top in In this issue: 1993. Most of the known populations were Living floras – keeping score of score-keepers . 3 growing on granite rocks.

  • Weather Modification Level III Feasibility Study Laramie Range Siting and Design Executive Summary
    Weather Modification Level III Feasibility Study Laramie Range Siting and Design Executive Summary Frank McDonough, John F. Mejia, Kacie N. Shourd, Rosemary W. Carroll, Alexandra D. Lutz, Jeff Dean, Jeese W. Juchtzer, Arlen W. Huggins, Mike L. Kaplan Desert Research Institute Reno, Nevada Ray DeLuna, Cameron Trembath TREC, Inc Casper, Wyoming Executive Summary A Level III Siting and Design Study was conducted by the Desert Research Institute (DRI) to assess the potential for an operational cloud-seeding program in the Laramie Range of south- central Wyoming. The study was funded by the Wyoming State Legislature through the Wyoming Water Development Commission (WWDC). The goal of this project was to assess the potential to increase snowpack and the resulting runoff in streams of the Range that provide water to the North Platte River using a well-designed cloud seeding program. The executive summary summarizes the study but more detailed analysis can be found in the full report. Winter cloud seeding has been conducted across the mountains of the western United States for more than six decades. Results of these studies suggest that a carefully planned and operated program can lead to snowfall increases of up to 10% for seeded storms compared to unseeded storms (Breed et al. 2015). The decreased snowfall in unseeded clouds is a result of inefficient ice crystal production in cloud layers with temperatures warmer than -15oC (5oF). Small aerosols that serve as the embryonic lattice structure for ice to begin to form often don’t become active in natural clouds until cloud temperatures cool below these levels.
