    Site Basic Report 7/11/2006 Site Code BCD S.USIDHP*688 Site Class Standard site Name DOME LAKE Defining Managed Area DOME LAKE RNA State/Province Idaho Directions Dome Lake RNA lies at the northern end of the Bighorn Crags in the Salmon River Mountains, about 3 miles (4.8 km) south of the Salmon River, at a point about 17 miles (27.5 km) southwest of Shoup. | Access to the RNA is possible via several routes, none of which are quick and easy. One route follows: From the town of North Fork, head west on the Salmon River Road 033 for about 36 miles (58 km). The western trailhead for FS Trail 172 is on the south side of the Salmon River between river miles 201 and 202 (opposite of Colson Creek RNA), just west of the junction with FS Road 123 (Colson Creek Road). From the trailhead, FS Trail 172 heads south, switchbacking up the ridge west of Shell Creek and gaining about 5000 feet (1524 m) in elevation over about three air miles (4.8 km) as it climbs to an area just below the Horse Heaven Lookout. Just southeast of the lookout, FS Trail 172 joins the ridgeline that defines the western boundary of the RNA. Other routes include FS Trail 021 from Crags Campground, approximately a 10 mile hike (16 km), and the eastern trailhead of 172 which leaves from near the junction of the Salmon River Road 033 and Panther Creek Road 055. Minimum Elevation: 4,700 Feet 1,433 Meters Maximum Elevation: 9,316 Feet 2,840 Meters Site Description Dome Lake RNA contains the entire upper portion of the Lake Creek watershed.

  • TREES AS CROPS in ALASKA PROFILE with an EMPHASIS on SPRUCE Revised 2009
    TREES AS CROPS IN ALASKA PROFILE WITH AN EMPHASIS ON SPRUCE Revised 2009 Robert A. Wheeler Thomas R. Jahns Janice I. Chumley PRODUCTION FACTS Growing trees in Alaska can be difficult. This document addresses basic questions regarding growing tree seedlings as an agricultural crop. Whether growing a few seedlings or thousands, many of the basic production questions are the same. From the standpoint of tree seedling production there are three basic regions in Alaska: Southeast, South Central, and the Interior. Producing high quality tree seedlings is 4-H Tree Sale in Soldotna, AK May 2003 achievable in all three regions however care must (photo/Bob Wheeler). be taken to match tree species requirements with local environmental conditions. Through the efforts of the University of Alaska Fairbanks and the Agriculture and Forestry Experiment Station, many tree species have been evaluated over the past 100 years for their performance. Results from these species trials have led to the listing of tree species, growth characteristics, and site requirements found in Table 1. DEMAND Interest in tree production can vary from growing trees for your yard or property to full scale outdoor or greenhouse, bareroot, or container nurseries. Tree planting and tree sales continue to be of considerable interest to the public although there are no large-scale commercial tree nurseries currently operating in Alaska. A state tree nursery was once operated in the Matanuska Valley area, but it has been closed. Reasons for the closure were based upon the high cost of producing seedlings in Alaska versus what it would cost to import them from nurseries outside the state and also, the overall operational difficulties and risks associated with an Alaska nursery program.

  • Subalpine Fir (Bl)- Abies Lasiocarpa
    Subalpine fir (Bl)- Abies lasiocarpa Tree Species > Subalpine fir Page Index Distribution Range and Amplitiudes Tolerances and Damaging Agents Silvical Characteristics Genetics and Notes BC Distribution of Subalpine fir (Bl) Range of Subalpine fir Old-growth, subalpine fir stands cover a large area of the ESSF zone, particularly in wetter areas, such as northwest of Smithers Geographic Range and Ecological Amplitudes Description Subalpine fir is a medium - to large-sized (exceptionally >40 m tall), evergreen conifer, at maturity with a low-taper stem, narrow, dense, cylindrical crown, with a spire-like top, short, drooping branches, and grayish-brown bark, breaking into irregular scales with age. Its light, soft, odorless wood is used mainly for lumber. Geographic Range Geographic element: Western North American/mainly Cordilleran and less Pacific Distribution in Western North America: (central) in the Pacific region; north, central, and south in the Cordilleran region Ecological Amplitudes Climatic amplitude: (alpine tundra) - continental subalpine boreal - montane boreal - (cool temperate) Orographic amplitude: montane - subalpine - (alpine) Occurrence in biogeoclimatic zones: (lower AT), submaritime MH, SWB, ESSF, MS, (BWBS), SBS, (upper IDF), upper ICH, (wetter submaritime CWH) Subalpine fir grows mainly in humid, continental boreal climates, with a short growing season; less frequently in cool temperate climates, with a longer growing season. When these climates become drier and/or warmer, subalpine fir is absent or its occurrence is rare (e.g., in the SBPS and PP zones). Edaphic Amplitude Range of soil moisture regimes: (moderately dry) - slightly dry - fresh - moist - very moist - wet Range of soil nutrient regimes: very poor - poor - medium - rich - very rich Field studies indicate that subalpine fir is most vigorous on moist and rich sites, with calcium - and magnesium-rich soils such as those derived from basaltic or limestone parent materials.
