  • BARK BEETLE CONDITIONS Northern Region 2007
    BARK BEETLE CONDITIONS NORTHERN REGION 2007 Ken Gibson USDA Forest Service Northern Region Forest Health Protection Missoula Field Office January 2008 BARK BEETLE CONDITIONS Northern Region 2007 CONDITIONS IN BRIEF In 2005 and 2006, western Montana and northern Idaho had received essentially “normal” amounts of precipitation. Climatologists were suggesting that for most of the Region—with the possible exception of southeastern Montana—the long-standing drought was about over. Improved growing conditions for most bark beetle hosts during those couple of years had resulted in reductions in population levels, and associated damage, of several bark beetle species. Unfortunately, 2007 saw a return to warmer- and drier-than-normal conditions that had plagued most of the Region for the past few years. Western Montana recorded the warmest year on record since 1934; and as the year drew to a close, much of the area was several inches behind “normal” in yearly precipitation. So, drought effects that had shown signs of being overcome, were once again manifest in much of the Northern Region. Some bark beetle species, especially mountain pine beetle, remained at high levels in 2007; however, even those populations have declined in some areas due to host depletion. On the other hand, populations increased markedly in a few areas just coming under attack. Other beetle species were at generally less-frequently-encountered levels; but resurges in some species, such as Douglas-fir beetle, were exhibited at a few locations. Hot and dry conditions resulted in another very active year for wildfires, which in turn resulted in our inability to survey all infested areas.

  • APPENDIX C WILDERNESS EVALUATION Introduction Inventory Of
    Draft Environmental Impact Statement APPENDIX C WILDERNESS EVALUATION Introduction This appendix describes the process used to inventory and evaluate areas on the Wasatch – Cache National Forest for their potential as wilderness. Each of the 31 roadless areas is then summarized in an individual report describing an area’s wilderness characteristics, current resource uses, and the need for the area to be included in the wilderness preservation system. Inventory of Potential Wilderness Updating the 1983 Inventory Past roadless inventories, such as the 1983 Forest Plan roadless inventory were used as a starting point to identify roadless resources on the Wasatch – Cache National Forest. These areas were updated and new areas identified based upon criteria in: · FSH 1909.12 Inventory and Evaluation of Roadless Areas · Intermountain draft Roadless Inventory and Evaluation Guide (USFS, 1998) · 1984 Utah Wilderness Act A significant change since 1983 roadless inventory was completed was portions of Mount Naomi, Wellsville Mountains, Mount Olympus, Twin Peaks, Lone Peak and Deseret Peak (Stansbury Mountains) roadless areas became wilderness in 1984 by the Utah Wilderness Act. Lone Peak had become a wilderness area earlier with the 1978 Endangered Wilderness Act and no further acreage was added in 1984. Additional Areas Identified as Roadless Because different criteria were used for the 1999 inventory than those used in 1983, eight additional areas were identified as roadless since the 1983 Roadless Inventory: · Temple Peak (Logan Ranger District) · Boulder Mountain (Logan Ranger District) · Mahogany Range (Logan Ranger District) · Right Hand Fork (Logan Ranger District) · Sugar Pine (Ogden Ranger District) · Rock Creek – Green Fork (Ogden Ranger District) · Hogsback (Salt Lake Ranger District) Wasatch-Cache National Forest C - 1 Draft Environmental Impact Statement · Lone Peak Additions (Salt Lake Ranger District) Further, the Mount Logan 1983 roadless area was split into three separate roadless areas, because of constructed roads that were identified.
