A family trip M heading up the French Pete trail, it was not pleasant for anyone. However, it was a seed which germinated later in life with the discovery of the Obsidians. It grew from spotty participation in hikes and winter trips over a period of eight years before becoming a dedicated member in 2003. Who can resist a group of friendly individuals that truly enjoy experiencing wilderness? With mentoring from club members, my outdoor experience has been nurtured from fashion to Scarpa boots, canvas to nylon tent, sweatshirt to fleece jacket, etc. As a nominee to the Board, I look forward to rooting my involvement and giv- ing back to the club. Thank you for the opportunity. Marci Hansen arci has been a lover of extreme outdoor activities since 1998 M when she started adventure racing. She has competed in dozens of races ranging from 24 hours to eight days in length. In 2010, she completed the Mazama beginner climbing program in Portland, and moved to Eugene two months later. She has led several climbs for the Obsidi- ans as well as volunteered for climb school every year since 2011. She traditional- ly gives the mountaineering nutrition speech at climb school, shocking students with the large amount of junk food recommended when climbing a mountain. When she isn’t climbing, Marci is an Internet marketing professional and a co- founder of SheerID, a technology company based in Eugene. Marci lives with her partner David, her stepsons Cody and Mike, and her ancient pit bull, Chaos. Lyndell Wilken n 1979, my first hike in Oregon was with the Obsidians, going from La- I va Camp to the Obsidian Camp trailhead. After taking in the views of the Three Sisters I decided to live in Eugene permanently. I was hired as the LCC women’s Track & Field / Cross Country coach and Physical Education / Health instructor at Lane Community College in 1980. After 37 years at the college I am now retired but continue to teach a Wilderness First Aid class. My outdoor pursuits include bicycling, hiking, backpacking, snowshoeing and cross country skiing. I have been involved with the High Cascade Forest Volunteers serving on their board for the last eight years and providing eight hours of Wilderness First Aid training to the volunteers at their spring training. I have adopted Rosary Lakes, helping keep the area clean and pristine. In conjunction with the HCFV I coordinate 25 volunteers for the 70 miles of winter recreation trails and seven shelters in the Willamette Pass Winter Recrea- tion area. During the last seven years we have refurbished all the trails with new diamonds

  • Elko County Nevada Water Resource Management Plan 2017
    Elko County Nevada Water Resource Management Plan 2017 Echo Lake - Ruby Mountains Elko County Board of Commissioners Elko County Natural Resource Management Advisory Commission December 6, 2017 Executive Summary The Elko County Water Resource Management Plan has been prepared to guide the development, management and use of water resources in conjunction with land use management over the next twenty-five (25) years. Use by decision makers of information contained within this plan will help to ensure that the environment of the County is sustained while at the same time enabling the expansion and diversification of the local economy. Implementation of the Elko County Water Resource Management Plan will assist in maintaining the quality of life enjoyed by residents and visitors of Elko County now and in the future. Achievement of goals outlined in the plan will result in water resources found within Elko County being utilized in a manner beneficial to the residents of Elko County and the State of Nevada. The State of Nevada Water Plan represents that Elko County will endure a loss of population and agricultural lands over the next twenty-five years. Land use and development patterns prepared by Elko County do not agree with this estimated substantial loss of population and agricultural lands. The trends show that agricultural uses in Elko County are stable with minimal notable losses each year. Development patterns represent that private lands that are not currently utilized for agricultural are being developed in cooperation and conjunction with agricultural uses. In 2007, Elko County was the largest water user in the State of Nevada.

A day hike is worth doing, but if you have time, I would highly recommend staying a night or two at Liberty Lake and using it as a springboard to Favre Lake, Wines Peak, and Furlong Lake as day hikes from a base camp at Liberty Lake. Note: Liberty Lake itself offers only a few primitive campsites and is relatively confined.

Though relatively short, the hike offers big views of Lamoille Canyon and has several smaller lakes to pass en route. This is a popular destination for fisherman, so be sure to bring your rod and reel if you are inclined. This also makes a great short overnighter for families. Tags: hike, wildflowers, fall colors, dog friendly, family friendly, beginner, access: paved Trailhead From downtown Elko, take 5th Street south, which becomes state road 227. This is well signed for Lamoille Canyon. From Elko, stay on 227 for about 19 miles to the signed Forest Road 660 on the right. Signed for Lamoille. Follow the road to its ends in 12 miles. This is the exit trailhead. There is a toilet at the trailhead, but no camping. Thompson Canyon Campround is part way up the canyon, but can fill up on weekends.

  • Reconstruction of Late Pleistocene Paleoclimatic Characteristics in the Great Basin and Adjacent Areas
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Kenneth A. Bevis for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Geology presented on March 3. 1995. Title: Reconstruction of Late Pleistocene Paleoclimatic Characteristics in the Great Basin and Adjacent Areas Signature redacted for privacy. Abstract approved:. Peter U. Clark A sequence of glaciation based on relative dating parameters was established in each of nine mountain ranges located along a northwest to southeast transect through the northern Great Basin. Each sequence consists of two or three drift units. Degree of weathering suggests that the younger drift unit in a two-fold sequence and the intermediate drift unit in a three-fold sequence represents deposition during the late Pleistocene. The late Pleistocene equilibrium-line altitude (ELA) in each range was determined by reconstructing the maximum ice extent associated with these drift units and using the accumulation area ratio technique. Paleo-ELAs increase from about 2100 m in northeastern Oregon to approximately 3200 m in central Utah. Paleoclimatic conditions along the study transect were estimated by comparing modern climatic conditions at the reconstructed late Pleistocene ELAs with climatic conditions occurring at the ELAs of modem mid-latitude glaciers. Assuming no change in winter accumulation or in the seasonal distribution of precipitation from the present, a mean summer temperature depression ranging from about 9.0 °C at the northern end of the transect to about 4.0 °C at the southern end would have been necessary to sustain glaciers in these ranges during the late Pleistocene. To simulate possible changes in late Pleistocene precipitation patterns, a change in winter accumulation between 0.5 and 2.0 times the modem value resulted in a respective increase or decrease in temperature depression by approximately 2.0 °C.

  • MULE DEER HUNTER INFORMATION SHEET Units 101-108
    MULE DEER HUNTER INFORMATION SHEET Units 101-108 LOCATION: Southeastern Elko County/Northwestern White Pine County. See unit description in the Nevada Hunt Book. ELEVATION: 4,300' near Wendover to 11,387' at Ruby Dome in the Ruby Mountains Wilderness. TERRAIN: Typical Basin and Range topography. Broad open valleys bisected by narrow steep mountain ranges. VEGETATION: From desert shrub in some lower valley bottoms to sagebrush, mountain brush, pinyon, juniper, mahogany and aspen at the middle elevations to sagebrush, white fir, limber and bristlecone pine at upper elevations. LAND STATUS: Checkerboard mix of private and public lands, as well as, large blocks of BLM and Forest Service administered lands. HUNTER ACCESS: Poor in the western portion of Units 101 and 102 due to private lands blocking access to Forest Service administered lands. Numerous public access points exist in the eastern portions of Units 101 and 102. Hunter access is not a problem throughout the rest of the management units (103-108), however, in some areas steepness of terrain and/or wilderness designation limit vehicular access. Note: Please be aware that sections of this unit are in a wilderness area. Motorized equipment, mechanized transport, including wheeled game carriers and chainsaws, are prohibited in wilderness areas. Contact the Federal Management Agency responsible for this area for more information. MAP REFERENCES: Topographical and land status maps are available from the BLM (Elko & Ely), USFS (Elko & Wells), or private vendors. U.S. Geological Survey 1:100,000 topographical maps that cover the area include: Double Mountain, Wells, Elko, Wendover, Ruby Lake, Currie, Newark Lake, and Mount Hamilton.

  • North American Weather Consultants, Inc. UPDATED PRELIMINARY
    North American Weather Consultants, Inc. UPDATED PRELIMINARY FEASIBILITY STUDY AND COST ESTIMATES FOR A POSSIBLE WINTER CLOUD SEEDING PROGRAM IN THE HUMBOLDT RIVER BASIN, NEVADA Prepared for Humboldt River Basin Water Authority by North American Weather Consultants, Inc. 8180 South Highland Dr., Suite B-2 Sandy, Utah 84093 Report No. WM 16-7 June 2016 1.0 INTRODUCTION Representatives from the Utah Division of Water Resources (UDWR) and North American Weather Consultants (NAWC) were invited attend a meeting of the Humboldt River Basin Water Authority (HRBWA) on May 9, 2014 in Winnemucca, Nevada. Mr. David Cole (UDWR) and Mr. Don Griffith (NAWC) attended this meeting and gave Power Point presentations on Utah cloud seeding regulations, UDWR support of winter operational cloud seeding programs and discussions on four major long-term winter cloud seeding programs being conducted in Utah over selected mountain barriers. These discussions touched on the theory of winter cloud seeding in mountainous areas and the design, conduct, evaluation and cost of these Utah programs. These programs employ manually operated cloud seeding generators that disperse Silver Iodide particles into selected clouds that are considered to be “seedable.” Indications of increases in either precipitation or snow water content from these programs average from 5% to 15%. A question was raised during this meeting whether a program might be conducted to benefit the Sonoma Range south of Winnemucca. Following this meeting Mr. Griffith with NAWC offered to perform a preliminary feasibility assessment of conducting winter cloud seeding programs in mountainous areas of interest in the Humboldt drainage and to provide some preliminary cost estimates for these areas.
