Wilderness Visitors and Recreation Impacts: Baseline Data Available for Twentieth Century Conditions
United States Department of Agriculture Wilderness Visitors and Forest Service Recreation Impacts: Baseline Rocky Mountain Research Station Data Available for Twentieth General Technical Report RMRS-GTR-117 Century Conditions September 2003 David N. Cole Vita Wright Abstract __________________________________________ Cole, David N.; Wright, Vita. 2003. Wilderness visitors and recreation impacts: baseline data available for twentieth century conditions. Gen. Tech. Rep. RMRS-GTR-117. Ogden, UT: U.S. Department of Agriculture, Forest Service, Rocky Mountain Research Station. 52 p. This report provides an assessment and compilation of recreation-related monitoring data sources across the National Wilderness Preservation System (NWPS). Telephone interviews with managers of all units of the NWPS and a literature search were conducted to locate studies that provide campsite impact data, trail impact data, and information about visitor characteristics. Of the 628 wildernesses that comprised the NWPS in January 2000, 51 percent had baseline campsite data, 9 percent had trail condition data and 24 percent had data on visitor characteristics. Wildernesses managed by the Forest Service and National Park Service were much more likely to have data than wildernesses managed by the Bureau of Land Management and Fish and Wildlife Service. Both unpublished data collected by the management agencies and data published in reports are included. Extensive appendices provide detailed information about available data for every study that we located. These have been organized by wilderness so that it is easy to locate all the information available for each wilderness in the NWPS. Keywords: campsite condition, monitoring, National Wilderness Preservation System, trail condition, visitor characteristics The Authors _______________________________________ David N.

5.1 Historic Period Human Interaction with the Watershed
Upper Carson River Watershed Stream Corridor Assessment 5. Human Interaction With the Watershed 5.1 Historic Period Human Interaction With the Watershed The purpose of this section is to summarize human activities that have had some effect on the Carson River watershed in Alpine County, California. Regional prehistory and ethnography are summarized by Nevers (1976), Elston (1982), d’Azevedo (1986), and Lindstrom et al. (2000). Details of regional history can be found in Maule (1938), Jackson (1964), Dangberg (1972), Clark (1977), Murphy (1982), Marvin (1997), and other sources. A book published by the Centennial Book Committee (1987) contains an excellent selection of historic photographs. Particularly useful is a study on the historical geography of Alpine County by Howatt (1968). 5.1.1 Prehistoric Land Use Human habitation of the Upper Carson River Watershed extends thousands of years back into antiquity. Archaeological evidence suggests use of the area over at least the last 8,000 to 9,000 years. For most of that time, the land was home to small bands of Native Americans. Their number varied over time, depending on regional environmental conditions. For at least the last 2,000 years, the Washoe occupied the Upper Carson River Watershed. Ethnographic data provides clues as to past land use and land management practices (see extended discussions in Downs 1966; Blackburn and Anderson 1993; Lindstrom et al. 2000; Rucks 2002). A broad range of aboriginal harvesting and hunting practices, fishing, and camp tending would have affected the landscape and ecology of the study area. Shrubs such as service berry and willow were pruned to enhance growth.

2019 Frog Lake, Winnemucca Lake, Round Top Lake, and Fourth of July
State of California California Department of Fish and Wildlife North Central Region Frog Lake, Winnemucca Lake, Round Top Lake, and Fourth of July Lake, Alpine County 2018 and 2019 Angler Survey Box Analysis Frog Lake Round Top Lake Winnemucca Lake Fourth of July Lake Ben Ewing District Fisheries Biologist: Alpine, Amador, Calaveras, and Lake Counties May 2020 1 Introduction Environmental Setting The Carson Pass Trail incorporates Frog, Winnemucca, Round Top, and Fourth of July Lakes in the Mokelumne Wilderness of the Sierra Nevada mountain range in Alpine County (Lockhart and Mussulman 2016). Three different watersheds are represented between the four lakes. Frog Lake is within the Carson River watershed. Winnemucca and Round Top Lakes are within the South Fork American River watershed, while Fourth of July Lake is within the Mokelumne River watershed. Much of the land surrounding the lakes on the Carson Pass trail is of montane and alpine habitat. Eldorado National Forest (ENF) manages the land in the Carson Pass trail area (Lockhart and Mussulman 2016; Chellman 2018). Due to the popularity of the Carson Pass Trail, ENF has placed restrictions on the Carson Pass Management Area to ensure opportunities for solitude, a primitive recreational experience, and to protect popular camping destinations from overcrowding and heavy impacts (ENF Website). The Carson Pass Trailhead is accessed off Highway 88 at the top of the Carson Pass. Frog Lake Frog Lake is a six-acre lake in Alpine County located at 38° 41’ 16.06 N 119° 59’ 10.03 W situated at 8,865 feet above mean sea level (Figure 1).
