  • Hoofer Mountaineering Club 800 Langdon St., Madison, WI 53706
    Hoofer Mountaineering Club 800 Langdon St., Madison, WI 53706 To: the Wisconsin Natural Resources Board, and the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources Re: implementation of Act 168, The Sporting Heritage Act For the sake of public safety, we recommend that the Department of Natural Resources and the Natural Resources Board close to hunting and trapping those non-designated use areas in State Parks that are regularly used for rock climbing, ice climbing, and bouldering. Our specific recommendations are detailed below. Climbing in State Parks Rock climbing is a traditional outdoor recreation with nearly a century-long history in Wisconsin, and is recognized as such in NR 1.33. Rock climbing, like hunting, is allowed solely in non-designated use areas. Some DNR personnel are aware that climbing goes on at some State Parks, but none have a thorough understanding of when and where rock climbing occurs. NR 1.33 stipulates that rock climbing be considered in planning, but for decades this has been at best inconsistent. The previous hunting maps and the currently proposed hunting and trapping maps for State Parks demonstrate this lack of knowledge and lack of consideration. Our recommendations are intended to fill that gap. Hunting and Climbing What hunters gain from Act 168 are simplified regulations. No more special permits for State Parks. If hunting is in season anywhere, it is in season in State Parks, and with any weapon for any game. Trapping will essentially be another form of hunting. Both the NRB and the DNR have stated that implementation of Act 168 should give hunters the maximum opportunity to hunt, without displacing other park users.

  • Wis. Agency Abbreviations
    GUIDE TO WISCONSIN STATE AGENCIES AND THEIR CALL NUMBERS Wisconsin Historical Society Library 816 State Street, Madison, Wisconsin 53706 Rev. to Oct. 2017 The Wisconsin State publications collection is arranged by agencies. A system of classification based on the federal Superintendent of Documents scheme was devised so that all of an agency's publications would be shelved together. This guide was produced to help you find an agency's publications. It also provides a history of agency changes in Wisconsin State government. This guide traces Wisconsin state agencies from the beginning of statehood to the present. The guide is divided into four sections. Part I is arranged alphabetically by the keyword of the agency (second column) and part II is alphabetical by call number (first column). The complete call number is not given, only the beginning alphabetical portion of the call number. Part III is a listing of subagencies with different call numbers than their parent agency. If you know the name of an agency look in Part I to find the call number In most cases everything from an agency is shelved under the call number of the major agency. There are exceptions to this. When an agency started out independently, but later became part of another agency it will still be found under its original call number. This is where Part III will prove useful. This alphabetical listing of major agencies, both past and present, with subagencies which have a different keyword classification is a reflection of an agency's history. One must remember that divisions of subagencies will have the same call number as the subagency.

  • Recreation, Tourism, and Cultural Resources
    Chapter 11: Recreation, Tourism, and Cultural Resources This chapter describes the recreation amenities, tourism and visitor facilities, and cultural resources in Marathon County. The recreation amenities consist primarily of a strong county park and forest unit system, as well as several prominent state and private facilities. Tourism is an economic driver in Marathon County, so attention is paid to current tourist attractors and opportunities for expansion. The cultural resources section includes a history of Marathon County and catalogues the historic properties and sites within the county as well as arts and performing arts spaces. Previous Plans and Studies Marathon County Comprehensive Outdoor Recreation Plan (CORP) The Marathon County Board, Wausau/Marathon County Park Commission, Forestry, Recreation, and Zoning Committee developed the plan. It was effective through the years of 2007-2012. The overall goal of the plan is “to provide a park and forest recreation system that will meet the needs of our current and future generations, preserve and protect the County’s open space, water, historical, cultural, and natural resources; and provide recreation opportunities that are designed to enhance the County’s quality of life”. LIFE Report The LIFE Report is a joint effort of Marathon County and the United Way and is produced every two years. The purpose of the report is to acknowledge community strengths, identify community challenges, and serve as a catalyst for change by advancing community conversations and partnerships around the Calls for Action. This report covers a wide range of topics and specifically addresses the impact tourism has had in Marathon County. Wisconsin Land Legacy Report The Wisconsin Land Legacy Report was created by the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources.
