    DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR MISCELLANEOUS FIELD STUDIES UNITED STATES GEOLOGICAL SURVEY MAP MF-1587-C PAMPHLET MINERAL RESOURCE POTENTIAL OF THE SNOWBIRD ROADLESS AREA GRAHAM COUNTY, NORTH CAROLINA By Frank G. Lesure, U.S. Geological Survey and Mark L. Chatman, U.S. Bureau of Mines 1983 Studies Related to Wilderness Under the provisions of the Wilderness Act (Public Law 88-577, September 3, 1964) and related acts, the U.S. Geological Survey and the U.S. Bureau of Mines have been conducting mineral surveys of wilderness and primitive areas. Areas officially designated as "wilderness," "wild," or "canoe" when the act was passed were incorporated into the National Wilderness Preservation System, and some of them are presently being studied. The act provided that areas under consideration for wilderness designation should be studied for suitability for incorporation into the Wilderness System. The mineral surveys constitute one aspect of the suitability studies. The act directs that the results of such surveys are to be made available to the public and be submitted to the President and the Congress. This report discusses the results of a mineral survey of the Snowbird Roadless Area (08-061), Nantahala National Forest, Graham County, North Carolina. The area was classified as a further planning area during the Second Roadless Area Review and Evaluation (RARE II) by the U.S. Forest Service, January 1979. MINERAL RESOURCE POTENTIAL SUMMARY STATEMENT The Snowbird Roadless Area includes 8490 acres of rugged wooded terrain in the Nantahala National Forest, Graham County, N. C. The area is underlain by folded metasedimentary rocks of the Great Smoky Group of Late Proterozoic age, and has a low potential for mineral resources.

  • Huckleberry Knob Hike
    Huckleberry Knob – Nantahala National Forest, NC Length Difficulty Streams Views Solitude Camping 1.8 mls N/A Hiking Time: 1 hour and 10 minutes with 30 minutes of breaks Elev. Gain: 370 ft Parking: There is space for only a few cars at the Huckleberry Knob Trailhead. 35.31391, -83.99098 If this lot is full, overflow parking is available on the grassy shoulder of the Cherohala Skyway west of the entrance. By Trail Contributor: Zach Robbins Huckleberry Knob, at 5,580 feet, is the highest peak in the remote Unicoi Mountains of North Carolina and Tennessee. The bald summit is reached by an easy hike from the Cherohala Skyway. Suitable for all levels of hiking experience, the grassy bald provides fantastic 360° views of the Unicoi, Great Smoky, Cheoah, Snowbird, Nantahala, Valley River, Tusquitee, and Cohutta Mountain ranges of southwestern North Carolina, northeastern Georgia, and southeastern Tennessee. This is one of the finest viewpoints in the region, only rivaled by Gregory Bald, Rocky Top, and lookout towers on Shuckstack and Wesser Bald. This is a wonderful spot for a picnic or lazy backcountry camping. While in the area, consider including other nearby trails along the Cherohala Skyway for a full day of short hikes. Mile 0.0 – There is space for only a few cars at the Huckleberry Knob Trailhead. If this lot is full, overflow parking is available on the grassy shoulder of the Cherohala Skyway west of the entrance. The Huckleberry Knob Trail [419] follows a forest road track through beech and maple forests. Mile 0.4 – Follow the shoulder of Oak Knob through wide open grassy fields.

  • Third Infantry Division Highway Corridor Study
    THIRD INFANTRY DIVISION HIGHWAY CORRIDOR STUDY Task 7 Study Alignments and Design Levels Draft Technical Memorandum 1. Executive Summary Section 1927 of the Safe, Accountable, Flexible, Efficient Transportation Equity Act: A Legacy for Users (SAFETEA‐LU) (P.L. 109‐59) requires “a report that describes the steps and estimated funding necessary to designate and construct a route for the 3rd Infantry Division Highway,” extending from Savannah, Georgia to Knoxville, Tennessee, byy wa of Augusta, Georgia. The intent of this study is to develop planning level cost estimates for potential corridors connecting these urban areas. This information will be presented to Congress to fulfill the statutory language and present an overview of the steps necessary to construct such a corridor. The study is not intended to select an alternative for implementation; it will not necessarily lead to any further planning, design, right‐of‐way acquisition, or construction activities for any specific highway improvement. This technical memorandum recommends initial study corridors and design levels for the 3rd Infantry Division Highway corridors along with supporting justification and the rationale for the recommendations. Input from the Expert Working Group (EWG) was considered during the development of the Alignments and Design Levels. The EWG is a panel of area transportation officials and federal resource agencies that helps guide the project. The EWG serves as a sounding board to weigh technical options, examine issues from multiple perspectives and, by drawing upon its collective experience, help the team solve problems. Tasks 8‐9 in the study involve examining any corridors recommended for additional study in greater detail.

  • 1978 231 a Catalogue of the Primary
    THE COLEOPTERISTS BULLETIN 32(3), 1978 231 A CATALOGUE OF THE PRIMARY TYPES OF CARABIDAE (INCL. CICINDELINAE) IN THE COLLECTIONS OF THE UNITED STATES NATIONAL MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY (USNM) (COLEOPTERA) TERRY L. ERWIN AND GLORIA N. HOUSE Department of Entomology, National Museum of Natural History, Smithsonian Institution, Washington, D.C. 20560 ABSTRACT USNM Carabid types are listed together with their type-localities and status. Correct and original generic placements are indicated alphabet- ically. Thirty-one lectotypes are selected from syntype pairs or series. All data are computer accessible and organized for immediate update when new types are acquired by the Museum. This limited study serves as a feasibility model for computerization of the USNM insect type collections. In anticipation of computerizing primary type data for the insect collec- tions at the National Museum of Natural History in Washington, D.C, we have undertaken a logistics study using the ground beetles as source ma- terial. Expeditious methods must be developed for data capture, specimen handling, and data organization in the overall project because the USNM houses over 74,000 primary types of insects. Our study covers only primary types of Carabidae, excluding those of T. L. Casey which have been discussed elsewhere (Lindroth 1975; Erwin 1974; Allen 1977). The present paper pro- vides data on all 287 primary types on hand through completion of this manuscript. Newly acquired specimens are easily listed in the data file to- gether with their data, and up-to-date printouts of holdings are available at cost to curators and the public at large upon request.

The western plethodons occur in the northwestern United States and adjacent Canada and include five species (vandykei, larselli, dunni, ©ehiculum, and elongatus) in thre6 species groups. Five species in three species groups also comprise the eastern small plethodons. Four of these (weHeri, dorsalis, cinereus, and richmondi) occur in eastern North America; the fifth (neomexicanus) is kn6wn only from the Jemez Mountains of New Mexico. The eastern large plethodons include six species (wehrlet, vonahlossee,.ouachitae, caddoensis, iordani. and glutinosus) in three species groups and occur only east of the Rocky Mountains.
