  • PCA) Report Name Colorado River Site Code S.USCOHP*15679
    Level 4 Potential Conservation Area (PCA) Report Name Colorado River Site Code S.USCOHP*15679 IDENTIFIERS Site ID 1328 Site Class PCA Site Alias Colorado River Megasite Network of Conservation Areas (NCA) NCA Site ID NCA Site Code NCA Site Name - No Data County Garfield (CO) Grand (UT) Mesa (CO) SITE DESCRIPTION Site Description This site includes the stretch of the Colorado River that extends from Rifle to the Utah border. The Colorado River riparian corridor is the most heavily developed area in Mesa County. The floodplains near the river were historically dominated by stands of Rio Grande cottonwood (Populus deltoides ssp. wislizeni) with an understory of skunkbrush (Rhus trilobata). However, development of the floodplain, agriculture, and most notably, the invasion of non-native species such as tamarisk ( Tamarix ramosissima), Russian olive (Elaeagnus angustifolia), and Russian knapweed (Acroptilon repens) have greatly reduced the amount of native riparian vegetation within this site. Extensive gravel mining operations in the river floodplain up and downstream of the City of Rifle has included the removal of cottonwood gallery forests and commensurate riparian and stream values that these forests provide. Along the immediate banks of the river and around wetlands in the floodplain, coyote willow (Salix exigua), cocklebur (Xanthium strumarium), barnyard grass (Echinochloa crus-galli), reedcanary grass (Phalaris arundinacea), common reed (Phragmites australis), cattail (Typha latifolia), hardstem bulrush (Schoenoplectus acutus), threesquare bulrush (S. pungens), alkali bulrush (S. maritimus), and redroot flatsedge (Cyperus erythrorhizos) are typically dominant. This site provides critically important habitat for endangered fish such as the razorback sucker ( Xyrauchen texanus), Colorado pikeminnow (Ptychocheilus lucius), and humpback chub (Gila cypha).

It has an area of about 38, 000 square miles and consti­ tutes about one third of the state. Much of it is wild or sparse­ ly inhabited, and unreachable by paved roads. It is rich in num­ bers of species of birds, some of which are unknown in most parts of the country. Yet it is relatively unexplored ornitho­ logically. Bailey and Niedrach's "Birds of Colorado" has few records from the western side of the state and notes " that there has been comparatively little field work in the counties west of the Continental Divide". This booklet has two purposes. One is to present a pre­ liminary fi'e1d list of the birds of Western Colorado which will be increased, improved and corrected by future observers.

Teaching young, talented musicians is a delicate and involved process, similar to properly storing the perfect wine. Just as different wines develop at their own individual pace, so do aspiring young musicians. No matter the time frame, when nurtured properly, like good wine, our students only get better with age.

  • 7 Napa Wineries to Visit
    BY KATIE SWEENEY HauteDRINKS 1881 Napa is a new tasting room and wine museum 7 NAPA WINERIES TO VISIT NOW Heading to wine country? Here is our guide to the best tastings, experiences, and not-to-be-missed vineyards ASK ANYONE WHO WORKS IN NAPA’S WINE INDUSTRY WHAT MAKES THE Jean-Charles valley unique and you’ll get a wide variety of answers, from climate and Boisset topography to winemaking techniques and grape varietals. With tempera- tures varying from one end to the other by 15 degrees, vineyards ranging in elevation from sea level to 2,600 feet, 12 different types of soil, and 34 distinct grape varietals, it is one of the most diverse grape-growing regions in the world. Napa Valley is also a relatively small area: it’s 30 miles long and five miles wide. There are 700 grape growers, more than 1000 differ- ent wine brands, and 475 physical wineries. These are staggering numbers for a consumer looking to taste the best wine, but that’s one of the things that makes the valley so exciting. You can visit Napa time and again and always discover something new. Here, Haute Living spotlights seven winer- ies, some old and some new, that should be on your radar right now. Book an experience at any of these places, and you won’t be disappointed. No matter where you go, you’ll find a passion for making great wine, a sense of community, and extreme respect for the land. 18 1881 NAPA If there is anyone who can put together a new wine brand in less than six months, it’s Jean-Charles Boisset.
