The annual has become an important document and an old tradition over the years. It meetsone of our stated purposes,to "gather into permanent form the history and tradition� [of outdoor recreation] of the region." It also allows us to record the pleasure and satisfaction we derive from our membership in the Mountaineersand recreatethat pleasure forothers. We believe that the club is stronger when we communicate well, and commu­ nicate often, to our members. We are happy to restore this tradition. In 1984we had a decision to make. No one stepped forward to accept responsibility for publishl:ig the annual. At the same time we were strapped for funds. In a volunteerorganization such as ours, we support those activitiesthat are most desired and neededby our members. Many serviceswere dropped that year. The annual was one. The "gathering into permanent form" fell to our monthly magazine. I've seena number of changesin the Club in recent years. When I joined the Board in 1986, we were looking at a financial crisis of monumental proportion. I liken it to slipping toward the edge of a crevasse withno rescue in sight. Although many like to point to our new building as the cause,we soon learnedthat the problems we were facingwere much older, larger and more invasive. The problem wasourunwillingness toacceptour fiscal responsibility to insure adequate dues income, and our inability I unwillingness to make tough financial decisions. With Bill Maxwell's leadership we dug in, stopped our slide, and turned ourselves around. Then in Carsten Lein's term, he tookon the tough assignment of changing policy, by-laws and organizational structure. My job has beento insure that the club is stronger under thesechanges, that we follow through with them, assuring that the form they take is accepted by the membership, and that they meet the spirit of our purposes and mission. In any organization, change is difficult. By insuring that people have the opportunity to commu­ nicate, that their complaintsare dealtwith fairly,andthat the change seems fair to the majority, we build a strong team feeling. We have achieved success in this effort becausewe have established a strong traditionof strategic planning in the last seven years. Eachyear the top leaders in the club meet to review The MountaineersMission and our priorities. Each year we strip our plan down to the basics and froma zero base, we plan for at least five years ahead. We follow up with a clear action plan and schedulefor meeting our goals. As any good Mountaineerknows, you need a plan to know where you're going, and to know when you get there. This planning tradition, careful oversight and thorough reporting systems are making the difference for us. Just a few years ago, we regularly Foreward 9 heard the lament '1t's just not fun anymore." We felt lost. Now we're found, we know where we're going, and we're having fun again. Meanwhile, we are looking at a number of other successes and chal­ lenges. The most demanding issue right now is that of the ski lodge properties. Snoqualmie Lodge in particular has seen less Mountaineer , support and more financial demands,despite herculean effortsby itslodge committee.The propertiesdivision has beenstruggling for years to main­ taina balanced budget. The Boardis developing a plan to achieve this in an acceptable time frame. MountaineersBooks has achieved a great deal of success in recent years. Under strong management, they continue to publish booksthat meetour purposesand our member needs,making our name and our mission known worldwide. Wild Rivers, is a significant achievement. It willbe used to promote and protectour naturalwaterways. RecentlyBooks relocated to alarger, more comfortable home. The Mountaineershas passed the 12,000 membermark. As our mem­ bership grows, we need more activities, and more leaders. We must provide better guidelines and clearer expectations for leaders and trip members.We want to support them with better training and recognition for their efforts on behalf of the Club. As our Northwest community grows, we recognizea greater need to protectourenvironment. Onewaywearedoingthisisemphasizinga team approach between the activities and conservation divisions. Through teamwork,we attain greater recognitionof the needfor conservationand protectionof the Northwest's natural beauty.

It seems that summer has kicked into gear in many parts of North America a little early. The grass is turning green, the trees are beginning to bud and the snow shovels are put away for the season. There’s been a little bit of tropo. There’s been a little bit of skip in the south. There’s also been some horrible storms and tornados in places. We hope everyone is okay and stayed out of danger. This month we find that Ken Simon (Lake Worthless, FL) has rejoined the club.

On the flanks of the mountains are 519 glaciers, in 9 3 square mites of ice - three times as much living ice as in all the rest of the forty-eight states put together. The great river valleys contain the last remnants of the magnificent Pacific Northwest Rain Forest of immense Douglas Fir, cedar, and hemlock. f'oss and ferns carpet the forest floor, and wild• life abounds. The great rivers and thousands of streams and lakes run clear and pure still; the nine thousand foot deep trencli contain• ing 55 mile long Lake Chelan is one of tiie deepest canyons in the world, from lake bottom to mountain top, in 1937 Park Service Study Report declared that the North Cascades, if created into a National Park, would "outrank in scenic quality any existing National Park in the United States and any possibility for such a park."

  • Evolution of Deformation in the Buck Mountain Fault Damage Zone, Cambrian Flathead Sandstone, Teton Range, Wyoming Stephanie R
    Pan-American Current Research on Fluid Inclusions Rice University, Houston, Texas, U.S.A., June 12-14, 2018, Abstract Volume Evolution of deformation in the Buck Mountain Fault damage zone, Cambrian Flathead Sandstone, Teton Range, Wyoming Stephanie R. FORSTNER, Stephen E. LAUBACH, András FALL Bureau of Economic Geology, Jackson School of Geosciences, The University of Texas at Austin, Austin, Texas, U.S.A. E-mail: [email protected] The Teton Range is a normal fault block that contains older reverse faults (Love et al., 1992). Although generally considered to be Late Cretaceous to early Tertiary structures, the timing, kinematic style, and history of these faults is conjectural. Faults include the Forellen Peak Fault to the north, the Buck Mountain Reverse Fault (BMRF) to the west and south, and the Teton normal fault to the east (Love et al., 1992). The BMRF is rooted in Precambrian crystalline rocks and dips steeply to the east about 60°. The fractured Cambrian Flathead sandstone, an orthoquartzite (90%+ quartz), rests nonconformably on the Precambrian. Its stratigraphic position and relative isotropic mineralogy make the Flathead an ideal horizon for studying brittle deformation. Oriented Flathead hand samples were collected from the footwall of the BMRF along a partially overturned syncline (Figure 1). Continuous SEM-Cathodoluminescence (SEM-CL) scanlines of these samples allow for a systematic kinematic analysis of the cemented opening-mode fractures. We quantify attributes such as; geometry, spacing, orientation, and cross-cutting relationships. In isotropic rock, mode-I fractures primarily propagate along the plane perpendicular to Shmin; therefore, microfractures can be used to indicate paleostress trajectories, strain, and relative fracture timing (Anders et al., 2014; Hooker et al.

  • Pasayten Rim Wilderness Evaluation
    May-June 2009 Pasayten Rim Wilderness Evaluation WILDERNESS EVALUATION PASAYTEN RIM - 608025 41,349 acres OVERVIEW History The area was originally inventoried as two separate roadless areas totaling approximately 15,400 acres during RARE I. The areas were Sherman Peak (12,000 acres) and Last Chance (3,400 acres). The RARE II process combined the two areas and did not recommend the area for wilderness designation. Due to nonconforming uses such as road construction and logging, 160 acres were removed from previous inventory; 10,839 acres were added to the previous inventory as they met the criteria for a potential wilderness area (PWA) as described in Forest Service Handbook (FSH) 1909.12, Chapter 70. The following chart depicts the 1989 Okanogan Forest Land and Resource Management Plan direction for the 2006 potential wilderness area. Table 1--Management area percentages (rounded) Okanogan National Forest MA32 MA37 MA45 MA46 Recreation/ Mtn. Mineral Timber/ Scenery Goat Exploration Range Habitat 45% 11% 32% 13% Location and Access The area is located northwest of Winthrop in the northern portion of the Okanogan- Wenatchee National Forest, and consists of a long, narrow band of land along the south edge of the Pasayten Wilderness. All lands are located in Okanogan County. From Winthrop, access is provided over State Highway 20, and county and national forest roads in the Chewuch River, Eightmile Creek, Lost River, and Harts Pass areas. Geography and Topography The western portion of the area consists of a long, half mile-wide band of southwest facing slope between the Harts Pass road and the Pasayten Wilderness.

  • Statewide Comprehensive Outdoor Recreation Plan 2015
    STATEWIDE COMPREHENSIVE OUTDOOR RECREATION PLAN 2015 Department of Land & Natural Resources ii Hawai‘i Statewide Comprehensive Outdoor Recreation Plan 2015 Update PREFACE The Hawai‘i State Comprehensive Outdoor Recreation Plan (SCORP) 2015 Update is prepared in conformance with a basic requirement to qualify for continuous receipt of federal grants for outdoor recreation projects under the Land and Water Conservation Fund (LWCF) Act, Public Law 88-758, as amended. Through this program, the State of Hawai‘i and its four counties have received more than $38 million in federal grants since inception of the program in 1964. The Department of Land and Natural Resources has the authority to represent and act for the State in dealing with the Secretary of the Interior for purposes of the LWCF Act of 1965, as amended, and has taken the lead in preparing this SCORP document with the participation of other state, federal, and county agencies, and members of the public. The SCORP represents a balanced program of acquiring, developing, conserving, using, and managing Hawai‘i’s recreation resources. This document employs Hawaiian words in lieu of English in those instances where the Hawaiian words are the predominant vernacular or when there is no English substitute. Upon a Hawaiian word’s first appearance in this plan, an explanation is provided. Every effort was made to correctly spell Hawaiian words and place names. As such, two diacritical marks, ‘okina (a glottal stop) and kahakō (macron) are used throughout this plan. The primary references for Hawaiian place names in this plan are the book Place Names of Hawai‘i (Pukui, 1974) and the Hawai‘i Board on Geographic Names (State of Hawai‘i Office of Planning, 2014).

  • WDFW Washington State Recovery Plan for the Lynx
    STATE OF WASHINGTON March 2001 LynxLynx RecoveryRecovery PlanPlan by Derek Stinson Washington Department of FISH AND WILDLIFE Wildlife Program Wildlife Diversity Division WDFW 735 In 1990, the Washington Fish and Wildlife Commission adopted procedures for listing and delisting species as endangered, threatened, or sensitive and for writing recovery and management plans for listed species (WAC 232-12-297, Appendix C). The lynx was classified by the Washington Fish and Wildlife Commission as a threatened species in 1993 (Washington Administrative Code 232-12-011). The procedures, developed by a group of citizens, interest groups, and state and federal agencies, require that recovery plans be developed for species listed as threatened or endangered. Recovery, as defined by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, is “the process by which the decline of an endangered or threatened species is arrested or reversed, and threats to its survival are neutralized, so that its long-term survival in nature can be ensured.” This document summarizes the historic and current distribution and abundance of the lynx in Washington, describes factors affecting the population and its habitat, and prescribes strategies to recover the species in Washington. The draft state recovery plan for the lynx was reviewed by researchers and state and federal agencies. This review was followed by a 90 day public comment period. All comments received were considered in preparation of this final recovery plan. For additional information about lynx or other state listed species, contact: Manager, Endangered Species Section Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife 600 Capitol Way N Olympia WA 98501-1091 This report should be cited as: Stinson, D.
