  • Landscape Character Descriptions of the White River National Forest
    Final Environmental Impact Statement Volume 3 Landscape Character Descriptions of the White River National Forest Headwaters of the South Fork of the White River Jan Spencer – Landscape Architect Writer/Editor Ron Wright – Soil Scientist Bill Kight – Heritage Resource Manager Kit Buell – Wildlife Biologist Carolyn Upton – Social/Economics Specialist Marsha Raus – Fisheries Biologist Narrative and Photography Contributors: Ron Taussig, Beth Boyst, George Myser, Tom Kuekes, Al Grimshaw, Dan Mathews, Paula Johnston, Kathy Hardy, Angela Glenn, Gary Osier P-1 Appendix P White River National Forest Preface The word landscape evokes certain unique and special images and meanings to each of us as individuals. As children we may have attached a sense of place to some small parcel of ground, be it a backyard or an open meadow blooming with the rainbow color of wildflowers. The rest of our lives then build upon those early impressions, layer upon layer of geographic recognition. Year after year we go back to a stream, yet each time we fish there we read something new into the landscape. It may even be some picnic spot with a backdrop of mountain majesty we can still see in our mind even with our eyes closed. These places uplift our spirit, but we are hard-pressed to put into words exactly how or why we feel the way we do. The comforting sense of familiarity a prominent granite peak holds for us never quite gets communicated beyond the photo image. “Like all real treasures of the mind, perception can be split into infinitely small fractions without losing its quality.

    Attn: White River National Forest, Aspen / Sopris Ranger District staff: Scott Fitzwilliams ([email protected]), Scott Snelson ([email protected]), Jon Thompson ([email protected]), Martha Moran ([email protected]), Bill Kight ([email protected]) From: Roaring Fork Mountain Bike Association, Mike Pritchard, Charlie Eckart, Board Members, 1212 Vine St., Aspen, CO 81611, 970-948-3486 Date: 1/8/2013 Re: WRNF, Proposal for a new Hay Park Trails Plan Please accept this letter as a formal request for action regarding travel management in the Hay Park area. As you know, we have previously recommended (most recently via attached letter dated 6/10/2011) during the recent TMP process that the routes in this area be studied further to reflect an accurate representation of field conditions and to consider how the trails have been used in the past and could be used in the future as part of a thoughtful recreation plan. The attached Plan identifies 4 trails to be opened, re-opened, or rerouted for mechanized use and shared with other trail users. We hope to assist in any manner possible to move this project forward during the coming months. We anticipate helping to fund this effort as a may be required, and would note that our group is interested in assuming stewardship of these routes, including implementing new infrastructure such as cattle guards and gates. To assist with management expenditures on the part of the WRNF, there has been some discussion to match grazing permit fees to help defray costs and to gain legitimate buy in commensurate with grazing interests.

Box 1919 Sacramento, CA 95812 Re: Pitkin County Comments on WRNF Oil & Gas Leasing DEIS Dear Scott: Thank you for the opportunity to comment on the White River National Forest Oil and Gas Leasing Draft Environmental Impact Statement. I write on behalf of the Board of County Commissioners of Pitkin County. The following comments relate to those portions of the White River National Forest within the territorial boundaries of Pitkin County. The County recognizes and appreciates the intensity and volume of effort that goes into an analysis like the DEIS. The County offers these comments in the spirit of further improving that analysis, and looks forward to its continuing partnership with the Forest Service—who we refer to variously as the “Service” and “USFS” herein—on this and the many other issues in which we have shared interests. Pitkin County believes that pressures on public lands created by new hydrocarbon recovery technologies require the Service and BLM to take an especially hard look at what areas are—and are not—appropriate for oil and gas leasing. In light of the United States’ vast unconventional hydrocarbon resources, the Service has the opportunity to both advance American energy independence and make intelligent siting decisions that avoid conflicts between hydrocarbon development and other economic and community values.
