The GYE, 18 million acres of the largest intact temperate-zone ecosystems on earth, comprises the National Elk Refuge, Grand Teton and Yellowstone national parks, and six national forests. The GYE is home to a breathtaking diversity of flora and fauna, includ - ing the country’s largest free-roaming herds of bison and elk, and a recovering population of large predators, including grizzly bear, gray wolves, and mountain lions. With so much to see, where does one start? A good place is near the picturesque mountain town of Jack - son, Wyoming. The town lies on the south end of Jackson Hole, a 50-mile-long valley dividing Grand Teton National Park, and is bor - dered by the National Elk Refuge, the Caribou-Targhee and Bridger- Teton national forests. The jump-off spot for wildlife viewing is the National Elk Refuge. The nearly 25,000-acre refuge was established in 1912 to set aside shrinking critical winter habitat for elk and other species. Rocky Mountain elk make their way to the refuge starting in Octo - ber and will often stay until early April. During the most severe months, refuge personnel, working from horse-drawn sleighs, pro - vide feed for an average of 7,500 wintering elk. Visitors can see the process up close and personal by hopping on one of the sleighs, which leave several times daily across from the National Museum of Wildlife Art. Alternatively, drive or travel with an area guide service onto the east side of the refuge to view red fox, golden eagles, bighorn sheep and, possibly, gray wolves or a mountain lion. The refuge is also winter home to an impressive herd of bison, and its buttes keep deer within easy range of predators all winter long. More adventurous winter enthusiasts might consider guided dog sled runs or snowmobile trips. Outfitters depart from Jackson or Teton Village and journey onto area national forests, where boun - tiful pristine wilderness vistas await. Next stop north, Grand Teton National Park (GTNP). Created Bison crossing the steaming landscape of Roaring Mountain, Yellowstone National Park. Below: Pelican, beaver, owl. 8 JACKSON HOLE SKIER 2009 Photos by Henry H.

One could easily spend an entire vacation here. Even in winter countless opportunities and destinations attract all types and levels of skiers, climbers, hikers, and snowshoers. See a park ranger at the stunning new Moose Visitor Center for more details and to schedule an informative, ranger-led snowshoe hike in the park. Winter is the best time to see moose in and around Grand Teton Teton National Park. Because of the cold temperatures and extensive mountain snow cover, these ungainly but appealing ungulates move to the sagebrush flats to feed on bitterbrush and rabbit brush. Red fox, long-tailed weasels (ermines), the occasional bison, and coyote can also be seen here. Scan high perches for rough-legged hawks and eagles. If your time in the southern GYE hasn't knocked your (two lay - ers) of socks off, you're in for a treat should you decide to journey north to the world's first national park, Yellowstone. Every inch of Yellowstone's more than two million acres is phe - nomenal. And though it's one of the coldest spots in the Lower 48, Yellowstone truly blossoms in winter. Board a snow coach or snowmobile at Flagg Ranch (north of GTNP), the only way in from the south. Travelers can also enter through West Yellowstone and Mammoth, Montana, however. Driv - ers and guides provide a thorough overview along the trip. The main destination for many visitors, regardless of the sea - son, is Old Faithful, in the Upper Geyser Basin. Yellowstone boasts approximately half of the world's hydrothermal features and these warm areas are the destination for many wintering bison, elk, and moose.

  • A Kinematic Analysis of a Telemark Ski Turn by Thomas Allen Trafton, Jr A
    A kinematic analysis of a telemark ski turn by Thomas Allen Trafton, Jr A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree Of Master of Science in Health and Human Development Montana State University © Copyright by Thomas Allen Trafton, Jr (1998) Abstract: Sondre Nordheim, born in 1825 in the town of Telemark, Norway developed the telemark ski turn. Little experimental data has been collected on the sport of telemark skiing. The purpose of this study was to determine the kinematics of a telemark ski turn including joint angles, joint ROM, and position changes of the lower extremity and trunk. Five, advanced level, male telemark skiers (29 + 8.1 yrs) volunteered and gave written informed consent to all testing procedures. A single telemark ski turn was analyzed using 3-D videography. The two 2-D images were transformed to create a 3-D model using the DLT technique. Two coordinate systems were used to calculate the kinematic data. Descriptive characteristics and summary statistics were calculated for the kinematic data. All subjects showed similar characteristics and kinematic patterns during the ski turn. A telemark turn sequence was created from the averages of the five skiers. Movements and position changes of feet, ankles, knees, hips, trunk; shoulders, and COM were analyzed and described during the turn progression. ROM and joint angles were also used to analyze and describe the ski progression. The telemark skier works more like a flexible linked because the heel is not fixed to the ski allowing a greater ROM of the hips, knees, and ankles compared to alpine skiing.

Conrad Anker is famous for climbing the most technically challenging terrain in the world. This quest has taken him from the mountains of Alaska and Antarctica to the big walls of Patagonia and Baffin and to the Himalaya, where on Everest in 1999, he discovered the legendary explorer Mallory’s body. Aaron Huey is a National Geographic photographer who, over the past year and a half, has photographed the Sherpa community for NG magazine, and was in the Khumbu in the aftermath of the April avalanche on Everest. In 2002, he walked 3,349 miles across America with his dog, Cosmos. Lakpa Rita Sherpa has summited Everest an astonishing 17 times, and has been the soft-spoken savior of many climbers on the mountain during rescues in the past 23 years. Lakpa is the first Sherpa to do the Seven Summits and was on Everest during the April 18 avalanche. Kit DesLauriers is a professional ski mountaineer and the first person in the world to ski the Seven Summits. Kit is also two time World Freeskiing Champion, mother of two and married to Rob DesLauriers. They celebrated their 6th wedding anniversary on Everest, and skied from the summit together.

    Chapter 2: Alternatives 2.1 Introduction This chapter describes the alternatives that were considered for meeting the purpose of and need for the State Route (S.R.) 210 Project as described in Section 1.2.1, Purpose of the Project, in Chapter 1, Purpose and Need. This chapter describes the alternatives that were developed during the scoping process and as part of public engagement opportunities, reviews the alternatives that were eliminated from further study through the alternatives screening process, describes the No-Action Alternative and the action alternatives that were carried forward for further study in this Environmental Impact Statement (EIS), and summarizes the advantages and disadvantages of the No-Action and action alternatives. 2.2 Alternatives Development and Screening Process Figure 2.2-1 presents an overview of the Figure 2.2-1. Overview of the S.R. 210 Alternatives alternatives development and screening Development and Screening Process process. This section provides a summary overview of the alternatives development and screening process as documented in the Draft Alternatives Development and Screening Report and the Draft Alternatives Development and Screening Report Addendum (UDOT 2020a, 2020b) (see Appendix 2A, Draft Alternatives Development and Screening Report June 8, 2020). The alternatives development and screening process consisted of these phases: 1. Develop proposed alternatives that respond to the purpose and need statement based on previous studies, public and agency input during the scoping process, and local and regional land use and transportation plans. 2. Conduct a preliminary evaluation of general concepts and/or alternatives received during the EIS scoping process to determine which concepts and/or alternatives could generally meet the project purpose, are within the scope of the EIS and EIS study area, and are technically feasible.
