The 10-Year Wilderness Stewardship Challenge was developed by the Chief’s Wilderness Advisory Group (WAG) as a quantifiable measurement of the Forest Service’s success in wilderness stewardship. The goal identified by the Wilderness Advisory Group, and endorsed by the Chief, is to bring each wilderness under Forest Service management to a minimum stewardship level by the year 2014, the fiftieth anniversary of the Wilderness Act. The Challenge was initiated in fiscal year 2005. The Challenge contains ten items that highlight elements of wilderness stewardship. These elements are 1) the natural role of fire, 2) invasive plants, 3) air quality, 4) education, 5) protection of recreational opportunities, 6) recreational site inventory, 7) outfitters

  • Moose-Gypsum Bridger-Teton National Forest
    United States Department of Agriculture Forest Service Moose-Gypsum Bridger-Teton National Forest Pinedale Ranger Distr ict Final Environmental Impact Statement May 2006 and Record of Decision United States Forest Bridger-Teton 340 N. Cache Department of Service National Forest PO Box 1888 Agriculture Jackson, WY 83001-1888 File Code: 1950 Date:May 2, 2006 Dear Planning Participant, Enclosed is the Moose-Gypsum Project Final Environmental Impact Statement (FEIS) and Record Of Decision (ROD). The Moose-Gypsum Project is located on the Pinedale Ranger District, Bridger-Teton National Forest. The FEIS identifies the Proposed Action with two additional alternatives, including the No-Action alternative. The selected alternative in the ROD is the FEIS Proposed Action as modified. Under the FEIS Proposed Action, management actions could impact approximately 34,219 acres (31 percent) of the 110,397 acres within the project area. Activities include vegetation and fuels management (including timber harvest), travel management, and recreation resource management. A modification to the Proposed Action was completed between Draft and FEIS removing a portion of the Dollar Lake and Little Sheep fuels reduction treatment units. This was done in order to better meet the criteria for the Canada Lynx Conservation Assessment and Strategy. The analysis for all resources has been modified in the FEIS. There was an additional 43 acre reduction in timber harvest acres between the FEIS Proposed Action and that described in the Record of Decision (ROD). This change was made to better meet visual quality standards. The change was minor and had no impact on the conclusions reached in the environmental effects section of Chapter 3 in the FEIS.

  • Bridger Wilderness Fishing Guide
    The Bridger Wilderness The Bridger Wilderness, within the Wind River Mountain Range, was designated as one of the first Primitive areas in the country in 1931. The pristine condition of the land was secured under the Wilderness Act of 1964, with 392,169 acres designated as wilderness. In 1984, the Bridger Wilderness was expanded to its current size of 428,169 acres. The area lies on the west side of the Wind River Mountain Range and includes over 2,000 glacial carved lakes, ponds, and potholes. Over 500 of the lakes in the range are known to support fish and about 240 have been identified in this brochure. These lakes range in size from well over 400 acres to tiny tarns. Lakes are connected with over 550 miles of streams that meander through meadows and plummet through canyons and tallus slopes, before exiting the wilderness boundary. With over 600 miles of trails connecting the northern and southern ends of this wilderness, the area offers a diverse trout fishery, with the opportunity to catch cutthroat, rainbow, brook, brown, golden and lake trout. This wilderness is administered by the Pinedale Ranger District on the Bridger-Teton National Forest within Sublette County and a small portion of the Southern Winds lies in Fremont County. Regulations in the Bridger Wilderness include the following: 1. Individual groups are limited to 15 people. 2. Pack and saddle stock permitted in each group is limited to 25 animals. 3. The maximum length of stay by any individual or group is 16 days at one site. After 16 days the visitor must move a radius of 5 miles and may not return to the same site for 7 days.

  • Fltfa Project Examples
    FLTFA PROJECT EXAMPLES Hells Canyon Wilderness, AZ City of Rocks National Reserve, ID Grand Teton National Park, WY Arizona, Hells Canyon Wilderness, 640 acres, 2009. Through FLTFA, BLM used revenue from the sales of land in Phoenix to purchase a critical 640 acre inholding within the heart of Hells Canyon Wilderness, a popular hiking spot north of Phoenix near Lake Pleasant. After the FLTFA purchase, community reinvestment act money helped build a trail where hiking access had been an issue when the property was in private hands. Now hikers can enjoy more trail access to the canyon and views of rugged mountains, desert springs and other features of the beautiful Sonoran desert. Arizona, Coconino National Forest, 45 acres, 2008 Adjacent to the Sycamore Canyon Wilderness, Packard Ranch contains portions of the area’s desert riparian ecosystem and scenic red rock vistas. The Verde River and Sycamore Creek, perennial streams that provide habitat for several endangered and threatened fish species, both flow through the parcel. The area in which this property is located also has archeological resources of national and international importance. Packard Ranch includes an important trailhead providing access to two trails into the Sycamore Canyon Wilderness. Arizona, Cartwright Ranch, Tonto National Forest, 28 acres, 2007. Located just 30 miles north of Phoenix, this 28-acre inholding within Tonto National Forest and the Seven Springs Recreation Area connects access to the Cave Creek trail network featuring over 35 miles of trails for hiking, mountain biking, horseback riding and hunting. Using FLTFA and LWCF funds, the U.S. Forest Service acquired the tract, ensuring continued public access to the trail network at Cave Creek, Seven Springs and Bronco Creek.
