Monitoring wolverines in northeast Oregon – 2011. Final Report. The Wolverine Foundation, Inc., Kuna, Idaho, USA. 2 INTRODUCTION The Oregon Conservation Strategy lists “species data gaps” and “research and monitoring needs” for some species where basic information on occurrence and habitat associations are not known (ODFW 2006; pages 367-368). For the Blue Mountains, East Cascades, and West Cascades Ecoregions of Oregon, the Strategy lists wolverine as a species for which status is unknown but habitat may be suitable to support wolverines. ODFW lists the wolverine as Threatened in Oregon and the USFWS has recently placed the species on the candidate list under the federal Endangered Species Act. Wolverine range in the contiguous United States had contracted substantially by the mid-1900s, probably because of high levels of human-caused mortality and very low immigration rates (Aubry et al.

  • United States Department of FREMONT - WINEMA Agriculture NATIONAL FORESTS Forest Service Fremont-Winema National Forests Monitoring and August 2010 Evaluation Report
    United States Department of FREMONT - WINEMA Agriculture NATIONAL FORESTS Forest Service Fremont-Winema National Forests Monitoring and August 2010 Evaluation Report Fiscal Year 2008 KEY FINDINGS Ecological Restoration: In 2008, the Fremont-Winema National Forests embarked on a 10-year stewardship contract with the Collins Companies’ Fremont Sawmill. This project is aimed at improving environmental conditions in the Lakeview Federal Stewardship Unit, while also supplying material to the sawmill. Under the 10-year stewardship contract, task orders are offered each year to provide forest products in conjunction with restoration service work to reduce fuels and improve watershed conditions. Over the 10 year stewardship contract’s life, at least 3,000 acres per year are projected to be thinned to improve forest health and reduce fuels. The contract is projected to offer at least 10 million board feet of forest products to Fremont Sawmill annually, as well as material for biomass energy. Also on the Forest, two Community Fuels Reduction Projects were completed. The Chiloquin Community Fuels Reduction Project was a 7-year project that reduced hazardous fuels on 1,400 acres within the wild land- urban interface (WUI) around the town of Chiloquin and was the first National Fire Plan project implemented on the Forest. This project was a cooperative effort with the Chiloquin-Agency Lake Rural Fire Protection District, the Klamath Tribes, and community residents. The second project was the Rocky Point Fuels Reduction Project. The Klamath Ranger District, with the assistance of local small business contractors and additional participation by the Bureau of Land Management and U.S.

  • Fort Clatsop by Unknown This Photo Shows a Replica of Fort Clatsop, the Modest Structure in Which the Corps of Discovery Spent the Winter of 1805-1806
    Fort Clatsop By Unknown This photo shows a replica of Fort Clatsop, the modest structure in which the Corps of Discovery spent the winter of 1805-1806. Probably built of fir and spruce logs, the fort measured only fifty feet by fifty feet, not a lot of space for more than thirty people. Nevertheless, it served its purpose well, offering Expedition members shelter from the incessant rains of the coast and giving them security against the Native peoples in the area. Although the Corps named the fort after the local Indians, they did not fully trust either the Clatsop or the related Chinook people, and kept both at arms length throughout their stay on the coast. The time at Fort Clatsop was well spent by Meriwether Lewis and William Clark. The captains caught up on their journal entries and worked on maps of the territory they had traversed since leaving St. Louis in May 1804. Many of the captains’ most important observations about the natural history and Native cultures of the Columbia River region date from this period. Other Expedition members hunted the abundant elk in the area, stood guard over the fort, prepared animal hides, or boiled seawater to make salt, but mostly they bided their time, eagerly anticipating returning east at the first sign of spring. The Corps set off in late March 1806, leaving the fort to Coboway, headman of the Clatsop. In a 1901 letter to writer Eva Emery Dye, a pioneer by the name of Joe Dobbins noted that the remains of Fort Clatsop were still evident in the 1850s, but “not a vestige of the fort was to be seen” when he visited Clatsop Plains in the summer of 1886.

  • Quicksilver Deposits of Steens Mountain and Pueblo Mountains Southeast Oregon
    Quicksilver Deposits of Steens Mountain and Pueblo Mountains Southeast Oregon GEOLOGICAL SURVEY BULLETIN 995-B A CONTRIBUTION TO ECONOMIC GEOLOGY QUICKSILVER DEPOSITS OF STEENS MOUNTAIN AND PUEBLO MOUNTAINS, SOUTHEAST OREGON By HOWEL WILLIAMS and ROBERT R. The object of this survey was to examine the quicksilver deposits with the hope of locating large tonnages of low-grade ore. The deposits occur in the south-central part of Harney County and are more than 100 miles from either Burns, Oreg., or Winuemucca, Nev., the nearest towns. The region is sparsely settled by stockmen; Fields, Denio, and Andrews are the only settlements. The range consisting of Steens Mountain and Pueblo Mountains is a dissected fault block, 90 miles long in a north-south direction and as much as 25 miles wide, tilted gently to the west. Pre-Tertiary rnetarnorphic and plutonic rocks occur at the southern end, but most of the block consists of Pliocene volcanic rocks. The major boundary faults on the east side of the range are concealed by alluvium. Minor northwestward-trending faults branch from them, their throws diminish­ ing toward the crest of the range; other minor fractures occur near, and parallel to, the mountain front. The quicksilver lodes were formed in and along these subsidiary fractures. The lodes occur in a more or less continuous belt just west of the eastern front of the range. They are steeply dipping and arranged in subparallel clusters, commonly standing out as resistant siliceous ribs against the softer kaolinized rocks that flank them. The lodes were formed in two hydrothermal stages, the first producing the reeflike masses of chalcedony and quartz with their halos of limonitic and calcitic clays and the second introducing silica and barite along with sulfides of iron, copper, and mercury.

  • Homelessness in the Willamette National Forest: a Qualitative Research Project
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by University of Oregon Scholars' Bank Homelessness in the Willamette National Forest: A Qualitative Research Project JUNE 2012 Prepared by: MASTER OF PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION CAPSTONE TEAM Heather Bottorff Tarah Campi Serena Parcell Susannah Sbragia Prepared for: U.S. Forest Service APPLIED CAPSTONE PRO JECT MASTER OF PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Long-term camping by homeless individuals in Western Oregon’s Willamette National Forest results in persistent challenges regarding resource impacts, social impacts, and management issues for the U.S. Forest Service. The purpose of this research project is to describe the phenomenon of homelessness in the Willamette National Forest, and suggest management approaches for local Forest Service staff. The issues experienced in this forest are a reflection of homelessness in the state of Oregon. There is a larger population of homeless people in Oregon compared to the national average and, of that population, a larger percentage is unsheltered (EHAC, 2008). We draw upon data from 27 qualitative interviews with stakeholders representing government agencies, social service agencies, law enforcement, homeless campers, and out-of- state comparators, including forest administrators in 3 states. Aside from out-of-state comparators, all interviews were conducted with stakeholders who interface with the homeless population in Lane County or have specific relevant expertise. Each category of interviews was chosen based on the perspectives the subjects can offer, such as demographics of homeless campers, potential management approaches, current practices, impacts, and potential collaborative partners. Our interviews suggest that there are varied motivations for long-term camping by homeless people in the Willamette National Forest.
