  • COLORADO CONTINENTAL DIVIDE TRAIL COALITION VISIT COLORADO! Day & Overnight Hikes on the Continental Divide Trail
    CONTINENTAL DIVIDE NATIONAL SCENIC TRAIL DAY & OVERNIGHT HIKES: COLORADO CONTINENTAL DIVIDE TRAIL COALITION VISIT COLORADO! Day & Overnight Hikes on the Continental Divide Trail THE CENTENNIAL STATE The Colorado Rockies are the quintessential CDT experience! The CDT traverses 800 miles of these majestic and challenging peaks dotted with abandoned homesteads and ghost towns, and crosses the ancestral lands of the Ute, Eastern Shoshone, and Cheyenne peoples. The CDT winds through some of Colorado’s most incredible landscapes: the spectacular alpine tundra of the South San Juan, Weminuche, and La Garita Wildernesses where the CDT remains at or above 11,000 feet for nearly 70 miles; remnants of the late 1800’s ghost town of Hancock that served the Alpine Tunnel; the awe-inspiring Collegiate Peaks near Leadville, the highest incorporated city in America; geologic oddities like The Window, Knife Edge, and Devil’s Thumb; the towering 14,270 foot Grays Peak – the highest point on the CDT; Rocky Mountain National Park with its rugged snow-capped skyline; the remote Never Summer Wilderness; and the broad valleys and numerous glacial lakes and cirques of the Mount Zirkel Wilderness. You might also encounter moose, mountain goats, bighorn sheep, marmots, and pika on the CDT in Colorado. In this guide, you’ll find Colorado’s best day and overnight hikes on the CDT, organized south to north. ELEVATION: The average elevation of the CDT in Colorado is 10,978 ft, and all of the hikes listed in this guide begin at elevations above 8,000 ft. Remember to bring plenty of water, sun protection, and extra food, and know that a hike at elevation will likely be more challenging than the same distance hike at sea level.

  • Appendix C - Roadless Areas
    Appendix C - Roadless Areas Purpose The purpose of this appendix is to describe roadless areas and the analysis factors used in evaluating individual roadless areas on the Routt National Forest. It includes a description of the physical and biological features, primitive recreation and education opportunities, resources, and present management situation for each area. Background Roadless Area Review and Evaluation In 1970, the Forest Service studied all administratively designated primitive areas and inventoried and reviewed all roadless areas in the National Forest System greater than 5,000 acres. This study was known as the Roadless Area Review and Evaluation (RARE). RARE was halted in 1972 due to legal challenge. RARE identified 711,043 acres of roadless area on the Routt National Forest. In 1977, the Forest Service began another nation-wide Roadless Area Review and Evaluation (RARE II) to identify roadless and undeveloped areas within the National Forest System that were suitable for inclusion in the National Wilderness Preservation System. Twenty nine areas, totalling 566,756 acres, were inventoried on the Routt National Forest (including the Middle Park Ranger District of the Arapaho-Roosevelt National Forest). As a result of RARE II, four areas on the forest - Williams Fork, St. Louis Peak, Service Creek, and Davis Peak - were administratively designated as Further Planning Areas (FPA). This further planning area designation meant that more information was needed before the Forest Service would recommend any of these areas to Congress for wilderness designation. In January 1979, the Forest Service issued nationally a Final Environmental Impact Statement documenting a review of 62 million acres of roadless and undeveloped areas within the 191-million-acre National Forest System.

    • A MODEL FOR BIOMASS ASSESSMENT E-023 SUBMITTED BY: Dr. Stephen J. Walsh Associate Professor Dr. George p. Malanson Assistant Professor Dr. John D. Vitek Associate Professor Dr. David R. Butler Assistant Professor Department of Geography Oklahoma State University & in conjunction with USDA/Agricultural Research Service SUBMITTED TO: Dr. Norman N. Durham, Director Water Research Center Oklahoma State University March 14, 1983 Introduction The surface of the earth is a complex system responding to the input of energy, natural and human. Human use of the surface for maximum agricultural efficiency requires knowledge of the interactions of all variables involved in the system. Broad categories of phenomena, including the atmosphere (weather and climate), biosphere (vegetation, fauna, and human activity), hydrosphere (precipitation, runoff, infiltration, fluvial erosion, and evapotranspiration), and the lithosphere (soil, topography, and parent material), can be identified as the major variables in any assessment. Assessment of interactions requires data from various sources. The emergence of remote sensing as a source of data for assessments in the last decade permits the development of more accurate predictive models. Refinements in data acquisition, such as improved resolution, the use of radar, and the correlation of detailed surface observations with satellite overpasses, provide researchers with the capability to assess inter­ relationships and create accurate models. A conceptual model, Figure 1, illustrates the interaction of the Department of Geography/CARS and the USDA/Agricultural Research Service with components of the natural system for the purpose of creating a predictive model for biomass assessment~~CARS, the remote sensing center at Oklahoma State University, plus ARS of the USDA bring different skills to this joint research effort.

  • Frozen Ground
    Frozen Ground Th e News Bulletin of the International Permafrost Association Number 32, December 2008 INTERNATIONAL PERMAFROST ASSOCIATION Th e International Permafrost Association, founded in 1983, has as its objectives to foster the dissemination of knowledge concerning permafrost and to promote cooperation among persons and national or international organisations engaged in scientifi c investigation and engineering work on permafrost. Membership is through national Adhering Bodies and Associate Members. Th e IPA is governed by its offi cers and a Council consisting of representatives from 26 Adhering Bodies having interests in some aspect of theoretical, basic and applied frozen ground research, including permafrost, seasonal frost, artifi cial freezing and periglacial phenomena. Committees, Working Groups, and Task Forces organise and coordinate research activities and special projects. Th e IPA became an Affi liated Organisation of the International Union of Geological Sciences (IUGS) in July 1989. Beginning in 1995 the IPA and the International Geographical Union (IGU) developed an Agreement of Cooperation, thus making IPA an affi liate of the IGU. Th e Association’s primary responsibilities are convening International Permafrost Conferences, undertaking special projects such as preparing databases, maps, bibliographies, and glossaries, and coordinating international fi eld programmes and networks. Conferences were held in West Lafayette, Indiana, U.S.A., 1963; in Yakutsk, Siberia, 1973; in Edmonton, Canada, 1978; in Fairbanks, Alaska, 1983; in Trondheim, Norway, 1988; in Beijing, China, 1993; in Yellowknife, Canada, 1998, in Zurich, Switzerland, 2003, and in Fairbanks, Alaska, in 2008.

Come hear about the history, the training for climbing almost four thousand vertical feet, the mental challenges, and bringing all the elements together for a successful climb. Jes is a Colorado native whose passion for the outdoors was kindled at a very young age. After living on both coasts and a few places in between, she made her home in Colorado Springs during the winter months. She coaches a competitive climbing team for Fountain Valley School, leads both indoor and outdoor technical skills clinics, and works as a At the monthly presentation Jes will discuss valuable lessons professional model. During the summer she travels regionally, she has learned through climbing and guiding, including her guiding rock climbing and mountain biking trips.
