SERIES Copyright by WiswaU The Village of Estes Park nestles in a quiet little valley, surrounded by mountains Page two An Appreciation of Rocky Mountain National Park By ENOS A. MILLS, Author of "Wild Life on the Rockies," "The Rocky Mountain Wonderland," etc. Written Especially fer the United States Railroad Administration j]HE Rocky Mountain National Park is a marvelous grouping of gentle­ ness and grandeur; an eloquent, wordless hymn, sung in silent, poetic pictures; a wilderness mountain world of groves and grass plots, crags and canyons, rounded lakes with shadow-matted shores that rest in peace within the purple forest. There are wild flowers of every color, and many a silken meadow edged with ferns. Brokenness and beauty, terrace upon terrace, a magnificent hanging wild garden. Over these terraces waters rush and pour. From ice-sculptured, snow-piled peaks, young and eager streams leap in white cascades between crowding cliffs and pines. Through this wildness winds the trail, with its secrets of the centuries, where adventures come and go and where the magic camp fire blossoms in the night. In these primeval scenes the grizzly bear gives to the wilderness its master spell; the mountain ram poses on the cliff; the laughing, varied voice of the coyote echoes when the afterglow falls; the home-loving beaver builds his willow-fringed hut; the birds sing; the cheerful chipmunk frolics and never grows up; and here the world stays young. The Rocky Mountain National Park holds adventure for every visitor.

    July 2014 | No. 203 July 15th – Pikes Peak Group Program Jes Meiris Presents: Big wall speed climbing on El Capitan Please join us in welcoming Jes Meiris to the monthly program Her passions include climbing big walls in alpine style, of the CMC’s Pikes Peak Group at 7:30 p.m. on July 15th in the mountain biking, hiking, playing piano, and snow sports. All Souls Unitarian Church, 730 N. Tejon St. Personal climbing adventures have yielded ascents in Squamish BC, Yosemite CA, Red Rocks NV, Smith Rocks OR, the Cascades, and Colorado's Rocky Mountains to name a few. With climbing partner Quinn Brett, she held the women's speed record on the Nose of El Capitan (10 hours, 19 minutes, on June 10, 2012), and just a couple of days ago reclaimed the record. Come hear about the history, the training for climbing almost four thousand vertical feet, the mental challenges, and bringing all the elements together for a successful climb. Jes is a Colorado native whose passion for the outdoors was kindled at a very young age. After living on both coasts and a few places in between, she made her home in Colorado Springs during the winter months. She coaches a competitive climbing team for Fountain Valley School, leads both indoor and outdoor technical skills clinics, and works as a At the monthly presentation Jes will discuss valuable lessons professional model.

  • Papilio (New Series) #12, Some O
    (NEW Dec. 3, PAPILIO SERIES) 2008 GEOGRAPHIC VARIATION AND NEW TAXA OF WESTERN NORTH AMERICAN BUTTERFLIES, ESPECIALLY FROM COLORADO By James A. Scott & Michaels. Fisher, with some parts by David M. Wright, Stephen M. Spomer, Norbert G. Kondla, Todd Stout, Matthew C. Garhart, & Gary M. Marrone Introduction and Abstract Michael Fisher is currently updating the 1957 book Colorado Butterflies, by F. Martin Brown, J. Donald Eff, and Bernard Rotger (Fisher 2005a, 2005b, 2006). This project has emphasized the necessity of naming certain butterflies in Colorado and vicinity that are distinctive, but currently have no name, as part of our goal of applying correct species/ subspecies names to all Colorado butterflies. Eleven of those distinctive butterflies are named here, in the genera Anthocharis, Neominois, Asterocampa, Argynnis (Speyeria), Euphydryas, Lycaena, and Hesperia. New life histories are reported for species or subspecies of Neominois & Oeneis & Euphydryas & Lycaena that were recently described or recently elevated in status. Lycaena jlorUs differs in hostplant, egg morphology, and somewhat in a seta on 151 -stage larvae. We also report the results ofresearch elsewhere in North America that was needed to determine which of the current subspecies names should be applied to other butterflies in Colorado, in the genera Anthocharis, Neominois, Apodemia, Callophrys, At/ides, Euphilotes, PlebeJus, Polites, & Hylephila. This research has added additional species to the total of Colorado butterflies. Nomenclatural problems in Colorado Lycaena & Calloph1ys are settled with lectotypes and designations of type localities and two pending petitions to suppress toxotaxa. Difficulties with the ICZN Code in properly applying names to clines are explored, and new terminology is given to some necessary biological solutions.

  • PSICC Flora – Assembled by Steve Olson, PSICC Forest Botanist October 2019
    PSICC Flora – assembled by Steve Olson, PSICC forest botanist October 2019 This flora of the Pike-San Isabel NFs and Cimarron-Comanche NGs (PSICC) started from the four Master’s theses done by students of Ron Hartman at University of Wyoming (Chumley 1998, Elliott 2000, Holt 2002, and Kuhn 2009). After sorting through names of plant species and getting them to agree, it appears that there are approximately 2,200 species, subspecies, and varieties of plants across the PSICC. Species names in this effort generally follow Ackerfield’s “Flora of Colorado” (2015). The higher level taxonomy (above genus level) follows the ANGIOSPERM PHYLOGENY WEBSITE, version 14 (http://www.mobot.org/MOBOT/Research/APweb/). As for the tab of “synonyms,” there are six widely used sources for southeastern Colorado. The new standard that I’ve been using is Flora of Colorado (Ackerfield 2015). This effort contains the latest in plant taxonomy for the local area. Weber and Wittmann (2014) is the fourth edition of the Colorado flora. These works split the state into east slope and west slope volumes. Every so often there’s a species that we see here on the east slope, but may only be in the keys of the west slope. Some of the taxonomy and nomenclature is not well accepted, so there can be some confusion as to what you’re actually looking at. The USDA recommended names of plants are in the NRCS-PLANTS database (https://plants.usda.gov/java/). The taxonomy in the database are somewhat dated and not keeping up with the latest available science.
