  • Statewide Comprehensive Outdoor Recreation Plan 2015
    STATEWIDE COMPREHENSIVE OUTDOOR RECREATION PLAN 2015 Department of Land & Natural Resources ii Hawai‘i Statewide Comprehensive Outdoor Recreation Plan 2015 Update PREFACE The Hawai‘i State Comprehensive Outdoor Recreation Plan (SCORP) 2015 Update is prepared in conformance with a basic requirement to qualify for continuous receipt of federal grants for outdoor recreation projects under the Land and Water Conservation Fund (LWCF) Act, Public Law 88-758, as amended. Through this program, the State of Hawai‘i and its four counties have received more than $38 million in federal grants since inception of the program in 1964. The Department of Land and Natural Resources has the authority to represent and act for the State in dealing with the Secretary of the Interior for purposes of the LWCF Act of 1965, as amended, and has taken the lead in preparing this SCORP document with the participation of other state, federal, and county agencies, and members of the public. The SCORP represents a balanced program of acquiring, developing, conserving, using, and managing Hawai‘i’s recreation resources. This document employs Hawaiian words in lieu of English in those instances where the Hawaiian words are the predominant vernacular or when there is no English substitute. Upon a Hawaiian word’s first appearance in this plan, an explanation is provided. Every effort was made to correctly spell Hawaiian words and place names. As such, two diacritical marks, ‘okina (a glottal stop) and kahakō (macron) are used throughout this plan. The primary references for Hawaiian place names in this plan are the book Place Names of Hawai‘i (Pukui, 1974) and the Hawai‘i Board on Geographic Names (State of Hawai‘i Office of Planning, 2014).

    May-June 2009 Abercrombie-Hooknose Wilderness Evaluation WILDERNESS EVALUATION Abercrombie-Hooknose - 621011 37,713 acres OVERVIEW History The Abercrombie-Hooknose Potential Wilderness Area was initially inventoried in the first Roadless Area Review and Evaluation (RARE I). In the second Roadless Area Review and Evaluation (RARE II) small areas were added. The 2006 inventory removed approximately 2,477 acres from previous inventory due to road construction and logging; 4,669 acres were added to the previous inventory as they meet the criteria for a potential wilderness area as described in FSH 1909.12, Chapter 70. The following chart depicts the current 1988 Colville National Forest Land and Resource Management Plan direction for the 2006 inventoried area.

Trail access is from three locations. One trail begins near Metaline, Washington, seven miles east of the area via the Flume Creek Road (Forest Road #6200-350). The secondary access into the area is via the Hartbauer Road (Forest Road #7078-300), which is west of the area.
