  • The Bitterroot Valley of Western Montana Area Economic Profile

    The Bitterroot Valley of Western Montana Area Economic Profile

    The Bitterroot Valley of Western Montana AREA ECONOMIC PROFILE prepared by Dr. Larry Swanson, Associate Directori O’Connor Center for the Rocky Mountain West The University of Montana May, 2001 This profile provides a description and assessment of the area economy of the Bitterroot Valley of southwestern Montana. Changing conditions and trends in the area economy over the course of the last twenty to twenty-five years are examined, including trends in population and employment growth and associated income changes and economic restruc- turing. Changing conditions in Ravalli County and the Bitterroot Valley are compared to those for the larger Rocky Mountain West region and nation as a whole. Various measures of the Bitterroot area economy also are systematically compared to similar measures for areas throughout the western United States having similar characteristics to the Bitterroot Valley. Two types of “peer areas” are selected for this purpose: 1) non-metro areas in the West nearby small and intermediate regional centers of 30,000 to 100,000 people, and, 2) non-metro areas nearby small and intermediate regional centers that are also nearby large concentrations of Forest Service lands. Major Findings and Observations Southwestern Montana’s Bitterroot Valley is the central watershed of the Bitterroot River, which flows north through the valley toward its confluence with the Clark Fork River near Missoula. This 1. Population Growth - During the 1990s, Ravalli County was the fastest growing county watershed is largely defined by the boundaries of Ravalli County. County boundaries also define in Montana and became one of the fastest growing counties in the entire United States, the outer boundaries of the Bitterroot National Forest.

  • 2019 Yellowstone National Park Bear Report

    2019 Yellowstone National Park Bear Report

    Yellowstone National Park Yellowstone Center for Resources Yellowstone Bear Program 2019 National Park Service Wyoming, Montana, Idaho Department of the Interior Yellowstone Bear Project Annual Report 2019 Summary In 2019, the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem (GYE) grizzly bear population was estimated at 737 bears occupying 26,539 square miles. These estimates are considerably higher than the 136 bears occupying 5,955 square miles in 1975 when grizzlies were listed as a threatened species. To promote human safety and prevent human-causes of grizzly bear mortality, park and Bear Management Office staff spent considerable time implementing actions designed to prevent bear-human conflicts from occurring. Management actions included removing ungulate carcasses from visitor use areas, hazing bears out of developments, installing bear-proof food storage lockers in campsites, posting temporary warnings and area closures, and managing the human-bear interface at roadside bear viewing opportunities. These efforts were highly successful at preventing conflicts from occurring. Only 1 grizzly conflict, 7 black bear conflicts, and 4 conflicts where the species of bear could not be determined were reported in 2019. The low number of conflicts is a remarkable achievement considering Yellowstone National Park (YNP) currently receives over four million visits per year. Although grizzly bear cub production in the park in 2019 was lower than the long-term average, grizzly bear mortalities were also low, with only one known grizzly bear mortality (a natural death) being recorded. Bear Sightings average date of the last observed grizzly activity of the year was There were 1,838 opportunistic bear sightings reported in November 25th. From 2010 to 2019, the average date of the YNP in 2019.
