    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

  • Welcome to the …
    January 3, 2008 Introducing Land, Water and People By Mike Blakeman Land, Water and People is a new bi-weekly column from the SLV Public Lands Center. By now, some folks know that the SLV Public Lands Center (SLVPLC) is composed of the Rio Grande National Forest and the SLV Bureau of Land Management. These two agencies linked up in an effort to improve efficiency while providing better service to SLV residents and visitors. Presently, the SLVPLC manages approximately 2.4 million acres of public lands ranging in elevation from 7,400 feet along the Rio Grande to 14,345 feet on top of Blanca Peak. The lands include many local attractions, such as Wheeler Geologic Area, North Clear Creek Falls, Penitente Canyon, Conejos Canyon, Crestone Needle, Blanca Wetlands, San Luis Hills… and many more areas which will be mentioned in future columns. That’s a lot of land! The lands managed by the SLVPLC include most of the mountains that surround the Upper Rio Grande Basin. In other words, the eastern side of the San Juan Mountains from the New Mexico border to Poncha Pass and the western side of the Sangre de Cristos from Poncha Pass to Blanca Peak. The high peaks of these mountain ranges wring snow and rain out of the clouds providing most of the water used by Valley residents. That’s a lot of water! Both the Forest Service and the BLM are multiple use agencies, meaning their lands are managed for a variety of purposes, including: forage production for cattle and sheep; preservation of cultural resources; commercial timber production; many types of motorized and non-motorized recreation; oil, gas and hard rock mining; wildlife and fisheries; clean air and water; and preservation of natural ecosystems in backcountry and Wilderness areas.
