Pikes Peak Massif
Wild Connections Conservation Plan for the Pike & San Isabel National Forests Chapter 5 – Complexes: Area-Specific Management Recommendations This section contains our detailed, area-specific proposal utilizing the theme based approach to land management. As an organizational tool, this proposal divides the Pike-San Isabel National Forest into eleven separate Complexes, based on geo-physical characteristics of the land such as mountain ranges, parklands, or canyon systems. Each complex narrative provides details and justifications for our management recommendations for specific areas. In order to emphasize the larger landscape and connectivity of these lands with the ecoregion, commentary on relationships to adjacent non-Forest lands are also included. Evaluations of ecological value across public and private lands are used throughout this chapter. The Colorado Natural Heritage Programs rates the biodiversity of Potential Conservation Areas (PCAs) as General Biodiversity, Moderate, High, Very High, and Outranking Significance. The Nature Conservancy assesses the conservation value of its Conservation Blueprint areas as Low, Moderately Low, Moderate, Moderately High and High. The Southern Rockies Ecosystem Project's Wildlands Network Vision recommends land use designations of Core Wilderness, Core Agency, Low and Moderate Compatible Use, and Wildlife Linkages. Detailed explanations are available from the respective organizations. Complexes – Summary List by Watershed Table 5.1: Summary of WCCP Complexes Watershed Complex Ranger District -
Fred Barr 1882 - 1940 by Eric Swab
Fred Barr 1882 - 1940 By Eric Swab I have always considered Fred Barr the benevolent benefactor of Pikes Peak hikers. He is credited with single handedly building the famous trail from Manitou Springs to the summit of Pikes Peak that bares his name. It is clear that he loved the mountains; however, his motivation for building trails was a combination of that admiration and his entrepreneurial spirit. Fred was born in Arkansas in June of 1882 to William M. and Mary Wade Barr, the eldest of 6 children. All of his siblings were girls.1 He came to Colorado with his family in 18932 when he was 11 years old. By 1900 we find Fred living with his family in Colorado City (now the Westside of Colorado Springs).3 Fred’s maternal grandfather Joel H. Wade had settled at the foot of Cheyenne Mountain on the Cripple Creek stage road in 1885. The Cripple Creek stage stopped at Wade’s place during the mining camp’s boom days.4 It is said that young Fred liked to hitch rides on those stage coaches headed into the mountains.5 These experiences must have been quite a thrill for a Kansas boy, and undoubtedly contributed to Fred’s appreciation of Pikes Peak. The Burro Livery Business By 1900 the City Directory for Colorado City lists William Barr & Son, proprietors of burros & tourist carriages on the north side of Manitou Rd, West End. That same year, Fred Barr, at age 18, is listed as a driver at the Garden of Gods station, residing on the north side of Colorado Ave. -

Appendix A lists the current Committee members. The 2018 OHV Grant Application and Review Process OHV grant applications are sent out by e-mail, ground mail, and are posted on the CPW’s Trails Program website each year. Trail grant opportunities are publicized annually through press releases, newsletters, the state website, and e-mail information networks. Technical assistance for grant preparation is provided by CPW Trails Program staff to potential applicants. The submission deadline for OHV grant applications is the first business day of December each year. The Commission, through its Policy A-104, has authorized a subcommittee structure to assist the Committee in formulating its grant recommendations. Subcommittee members are appointed to the Grant Review and Ranking Subcommittees for the purpose of reviewing and ranking grant applications and compiling funding recommendations for the Committee’s consideration.
