  • APPENDIX A20 CUMULATIVE IMPACTS TECHNICAL MEMORANDUM April 2020 by David Evans and Associates
    APPENDIX A20 CUMULATIVE IMPACTS TECHNICAL MEMORANDUM Environmental Assessment and Section 4(f) Evaluation APPENDIX A20 CUMULATIVE IMPACTS TECHNICAL MEMORANDUM April 2020 By David Evans and Associates INTRODUCTION AND BACKGROUND The I-70 West Vail Pass Auxiliary Lanes project is located in Eagle and Summit Counties, with the eastern terminus just east of the Vail Pass Rest Area and the western terminus in the Town of Vail. The project study limits include eastbound (EB) and westbound (WB) I-70 from mile post (MP) 179.5 to MP 191.5. The project location and approximate study area are shown in Figure 1 . As part of the initial National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) analysis, a Tier 1 Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) for the I-70 Mountain Corridor (C-470 to Glenwood Springs) was completed in 2011. This EIS, the I-70 Mountain Corridor Programmatic Final Environmental Impact Statement (PEIS), recommended the addition of auxiliary lanes EB and WB on the west side of Vail Pass from MP 180 to MP 190 as part of the Preferred Alternative’s Minimum Program of Improvements. The PEIS also identified the potential for an elevated Advanced Guideway System (AGS) for transit along the I-70 corridor, including the West Vail Pass project corridor. A follow-up AGS Feasibility Study in 2014 analyzed potential alignments and costs for an AGS system and determined there were three feasible alignments for future AGS. While AGS is not part of the West Vail Pass Auxiliary Lanes project, the AGS Feasibility Study was used to ensure the project did not preclude the favored alignment of the three, which would be partially within CDOT right-of-way (ROW).

  • US Forest Service Commemorates 50Th Anniversay of Wilderness at Cradle of Wilderness in Flat Tops Wilderness Area
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE USDA Forest Service, White River National Forest 120 Midland Ave., Suite 140 Glenwood Springs, CO 81601 Contact: Kate Jerman, +1 (970) 945-3237 [email protected] US Forest Service Commemorates 50th Anniversay of Wilderness at Cradle of Wilderness in Flat Tops Wilderness Area Meeker, Colo.,August, 22, 2014 - In 2014 the US Forest Service is dedicated to commemorating “50 Years of Wilderness” and honoring the anniversary of the National Wilderness Preservation System and the Wilderness Act of 1964. Today, Forest Service officials, employees, partners and community members gathered before the sweeping vistas of Trappers Lake in the Flat Tops Wilderness on the White River National Forest to recognize the 50th anniversary and to honor the Trappers Lake area. Trappers Lake, also known as the Cradle of Wilderness, remains a historically significant area for the region and the agency in regards to wilderness preservation. The Cradle of Wilderness was one of the first areas in the nation to be set aside from development by the agency due to the foresight of visionary Arthur Carhart, who sought for greater protection measures over special areas of land. “This area is special, not only to the community but to the agency. The story of Trappers Lake begins with the foresight of Arthur Carhart in 1919,” stated Ken Coffin, District Ranger of the Blanco Ranger District. “Carhart persuaded Forest Service leadership to save the area from development. By doing so, the agency took an unprecedented step, one of the first in the nation, toward establishing protected and pristine areas.” In 1919, Carhart was charged with surveying the Trappers Lake area for development.

  • Matthew A. Pearce “Cradle of the Wilderness” Articles Part Three: August 17, 2014
    Matthew A. Pearce “Cradle of the Wilderness” Articles Part Three: August 17, 2014 “A Symbol of the Serenity that is Wilderness”: Trappers Lake and Contemporary Wilderness Politics Trappers Lake was not among the places protected by the Wilderness Act upon its passage in 1964. Rather, the creation of a Flat Tops Wilderness Area that included the lake exemplified how the Wilderness Act guided the wilderness debate during the late twentieth century. Wilderness remained a flexible concept, having evolved far beyond both Arthur Carhart’s original plans for Trappers Lake and the Forest Service’s designs for the region. This flexibility was a product of the fact that the Wilderness Act required the creation of wilderness areas to be a public matter decided by Congress rather than by a federal agency. In other words, although the Forest Service referred to Trappers Lake as “a symbol of the serenity that is Wilderness,” the debate over its fate remained anything but serene as a variety of groups applied their own understandings of wilderness to the place in the decades following the Wilderness Act. The Forest Service formally recommended the Flat Tops as an addition to the National Wilderness Preservation System in 1967. Encompassing 142,230 acres, the proposed Flat Tops Wilderness Area featured a couple of new additions to complement the original primitive area that the agency had created in 1932. Trappers Lake was chief among them, now eligible for wilderness designation since the Bureau of Reclamation relinquished its claim on the lake in 1964. Moreover, the proposed wilderness area spanned across the summit of the Flat Tops—the series of highlands that comprise the White River Plateau—and included vast expanses of Engelmann spruce forest recently devastated by a spruce bark beetle epidemic.

  • Contributions to the Geography of the United States, 1922
    CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE GEOGRAPHY OF THE UNITED STATES, 1922. PENEPLAINS OF4 THE FRONT RANGE AND ROCKY MOUNTAIN NATIONAL PARK, COLORADO. By Wnxis T. LEE. PURPOSE OF THE PAPER. The purpose of this paper is to call attention to some of the major surface features in the Rocky Mountain National Park and to point out their probable correlation with similar features in neigh­ boring regions. The observations on which the paper is based were made in the summer of 1916, during an investigation in which other work demanded first consideration. This paper may therefore be considered a by-product. For the same reason many of the observa­ tions were not followed to conclusions, yet the data obtained seem to be sufficient to establish a certain order of events, the recognition of which may be of assistance in working out in detail the geologic and geographic history of the Rocky Mountain region. TWO CYCLES OF EROSION PREVIOUSLY RECOGNIZED. In an account of the general geology of the Georgetown quad­ rangle, Colo.j Ball x describes three distinct types of land forms " an old, mature mountainous upland; younger V-shaped valleys in­ cised in this upland; and glacial cirques developed at the heads of some of the streams, passing downward into U-shaped valleys." Ball describes the mountainous upland as consisting of highlands of rounded or gently sloping tops which are remnants of an ancient peneplain or old surface of erosion. Most of these remnants in the Georgetown quadrangle lie above an altitude of 11,500 feet. On thig old peneplain there were many monadnocks, some of which are now recognizable as the summits of the highest mountains.
