This Environmental Assessment is a public document that provides evidence and analysis for determining whether to prepare an environmental impact statement or a finding of no significant impact. The purpose of this proposal is to: 1) adopt a comprehensive resource management plan to protect and enhance the values for which the river was designated (free-flowing condition, water quality, and outstandingly remarkable values), and 2) identify and implement Forest Service management actions needed to protect these values in the Clarks Fork Wild River corridor. There are two alternatives: Alternative 1-the proposed action, and Alternative 2. The management plan and proposed activities would occur in the designated wild segment of the Clarks Fork of the Yellowstone River, a component of the Wild and Scenic Rivers System, approximately 30 miles northwest of Cody in Park County, Wyoming.

    The Beartooth Highway: 2012 -2013 Economic Impacts, Use, and Destination Image A compilation of three separate studies conducted along the Beartooth Highway with a summary and researcher observations in the introductory pages. Jake Jorgenson, M.S. Norma Polovitz Nickerson, Ph.D. Kara Grau, M.S. The Beartooth Highway: 2012-2013 Economic Impacts, Use, and Destination Image Jake Jorgenson, Norma Polovitz Nickerson, & Kara Grau The Institute for Tourism and Recreation Research College of Forestry and Conservation University of Montana, Missoula, MT The purpose of this study was to assess the economic impacts and visitor use of the Beartooth Highway. Until now, little was known about visitors to the Beartooth Highway Region. Data was collected from visitors during the 2012 summer and 2012-2013 winter seasons. In total, over 4,000 summer visitors and 1,600 winter visitors were intercepted during the study. The Beartooth Highway is a nationally designated “All-American Road” situated in south-central Montana and north-central Wyoming. It spans 68-miles from Red Lodge, MT to the northeast entrance of Yellowstone National Park. Three gateway communities comprise the Beartooth Highway Region during the summer season: Red Lodge, MT, Cooke City/Silver Gate, MT and Cody, WY. During the winter season, Red Lodge, MT is not considered a gateway community because of road closures limiting access only to Cooke City/Colter Pass/Silver Gate, MT and Cody, WY (via the Chief Joseph Scenic Byway). Over 170,000 nonresident travel groups in the summer season and 16,000 nonresident travel groups in the winter season visited the Beartooth Highway Region.
