  • 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 Both unpublished data collected by the management agencies and data published in reports are included.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.

  • The Oxen at Naches Pass
    78 News Department The Washington Historical Quarterly extends welcome to the new association and cherishes the hope that the "British Columbia Historical Quarterly" may soon make its appearance. The Oxen at Naches Pass In "Van Ogle's Memory of Pioneer Days," which appeared in the Washington Historical Quarterly for October, 1922, the old pioneer was shown (pages 269-270) to differ with George H. Himes, the eminent historical authority of Oregon, about the fam­ ous story of killing oxen at Naches Pass in order to make raw­ hide ropes, with which to let the immigrant wagons down what was called "the jumping-off place." Mr. Himes promptly took ex­ ception to such criticism of his historical work and painstaking efforts at accuracy as follows: "I just saw your October Quarterly and read Van Ogle's account. A lot of what he gave Miss Judson is an after thought. There was not a single wagon driven down from the summit with a team attached, even one yoke. I began the preparation of my article, as printed in the Transactions of the Oregon Pioneer As­ sociation, 1907, fully twenty-five years before that, at the request of James Biles, one day when I was his guest at Tumwater. "'Why, Mr. Biles,' I said, 'I am not the person to write an account of that trip through the Naches Pass. Some one or more of the adults otIght to do it. I was nothing but a 1.oy and am not positive about the facts. I remember many of the details of the trip-that is, I think I remember them.' Finally, upon Mr.
