ARLIS .· .· Alaska Resources Uotary & Information Services AlM INTRODUCTION At the request of the Bureau of Land Management, the Heritage Conservation and Recreation Service made an independent study of the resources of the Kisaralik River area to determine the river's suitability for designation as a component of the National Wild and Scenic River System. In the Wild and Scenic Rivers Act (PL. 90-542) Congress stated: "It is hereby declareq to be the policy of the United States that certain selected rivers of the Nation which with their immediate envi:r:onments, possess outstandingly remarkable scenic, recreational, geologic, fish and wildlife, historic, cultural, or other similar values, shall be preserved in free-flowing condition, and that they and their immediate environments shall be protected for the benefit and enjoyment of present and future generations." Ibis study was made in compliance with ~he Act. An interagency field inspection was conducted of the Kisaralik River in July 1978. Participating in the inspection were: Bureau of Land Management U.s. Fish & Wildlife Service State of AI;aska, Division Heritage Conseravtion & of Parks Recreation Service The following analysis is largel~ based on information obtained during the interagency field inspection; the Kisaralik River Report of August 7-14, 1976, by BLM staff (unpublished); the BOR aerial reconaissance in 1977; and library materials. THE RIVER AND ITS SETTING ~eral Setting The 3,000-4,000 foot high Kuskokwim Mountains run from near the central Yukon River in a southwest direction to the Bering Sea.

    DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR GEOLOGICAL SURVEY GEOLOGY OF THE CRAIG QUADRANGLE, ALASKA By G. D. Eberlein, Michael Churkin, Jr., Claire Carter, H. C. Berg, and A. T. Ovenshine Open-File Report 83-91 This report is preliminary and has not been reviewed for conformity with U.S. Geological Survey editorial standards and strati graphic nomenclature Menlo Park, California 1983 Geology of the Craig Quadrangle, Alaska By G. D. Eberlein, Michael Churkin, Jr., Claire Carter, H. C. Berg, and A. T. Ovenshine Introduction This report consists of the following: 1) Geologic map (1:250,000) (Fig. 1); includes Figs. 2-4, index maps 2) Description of map units 3) Map showing key fossil and geochronology localities (Fig. 5) 4) Table listing key fossil collections 5) Correlation diagram showing Silurian and Lower Devonian facies changes in the northwestern part of the quadrangle (Fig. 6) 6) Sequence of Paleozoic restored cross sections within the Alexander terrane showing a history of upward shoaling volcanic-arc activity (Fig. 7). The Craig quadrangle contains parts of three northwest-trending tectonostratigraphic terranes (Berg and others, 1972, 1978). From southwest to northeast they are the Alexander terrane, the Gravina-Nutzotin belt, and the Taku terrane. The Alexander terrane of Paleozoic sedimentary and volcanic rocks, and Paleozoic and Mesozoic plutonic rocks, underlies the Prince of Wales Island region southwest of Clarence Strait. Supracrustal rocks of the Alexander terrane range in age from Early Ordovician into the Pennsylvanian, are unmetamorphosed and richly fossiliferous, and aopear to stratigraphically overlie pre-Middle Ordovician metamorphic rocks of the Wales Group (Eberlein and Churkin, 1970).

PUB DATE Oct 91 NOTE 9p.; In: Proceedings of the International Conference and Workshop Summaries Book of the International Association for Experiential Education (19th, Lake Junaluska, NC, October 24-27, 1991); see RC 018 571. PUB TYPE Speeches/Conference Papers (150) -- Guides - Non-Classroom Use (055) EDRS PRICE MF01 Plus Postage. PC Not Available from EDRS. DESCRIPTORS *Adventure Education; *Outdoor Activities; *Recreation; *Tourism; *Travel IDENTIFIERS *Alaska; *Wilderness ABSTRACT This article provides an overview of trip programming in klaska for those seeking a low-cost wilderness adventure. Alaska is a land of glaciers, mountains, lakes, rivers, forests, and wildlife. Safety is a major concern when traveling in Alaska. A local guide or outdoor educator can assist with safety and logistical planning. Travelers should plan to spend at least 2 weeks in Alaska. July and August are the most popular months to visit the state. Lodging, rentals, and some fresh foods are more expensive than in the rest of the country, although gas, outdoor equipment, and food staples are about the same as in the rest of the country. Public transportation includes the Alaska Railroad, buses, airlines, and the Alaska Marine Highway System. The paper lists specific low-cost wilderness trips in the following areas:(1) backpacking and ski touriAg;(2) trekking and ski touring;(3) mountain biking;(4) climbing and alpine ski touring;(5) river running and flatwater touring; and (6) sea kayaking. The paper recommends 26 trips, with a brief description and the number of days to be allotted for each.

  • Chugach National Forest Wilderness Area Inventory and Evaluation
    Chugach National Forest Wilderness Area Inventory and Evaluation Overview of the Wilderness Area Recommendation Process As part of plan revision, the responsible official, the forest supervisor, shall “identify and evaluate lands that may be suitable for inclusion in the National Wilderness Preservation System and determine whether to recommend any such lands for wilderness designation” (36 CFR 219.7(c)(2)(v), effective May 9, 2012). Forest Service directives (FSH 1909.12, Chapter 70) for implementing the 2012 Planning Rule provide further guidance on how to complete this process in four steps: (1) Identify and inventory all lands that may be suitable for inclusion in the National Wilderness Preservation System (2) Evaluate the wilderness characteristics of each area based on a given set of criteria (3) The forest supervisor will determine which areas to further analyze in the NEPA process (4) The forest supervisor will decide which areas, if any, to recommend for inclusion in the National Wilderness Preservation System This report provides documentation for the inventory and evaluation steps of this process, and is divided into two sections. The first section provides information about the inventory process and results. These results also include a description of the current conditions and management for vegetation, wildlife, fish, recreation, and access to the Chugach National Forest as they are related to wilderness character. This description is intended to provide a big-picture view of national forest resources and serve as a foundation for the evaluation section. The second section provides an area by area evaluation of wilderness characteristics found in the inventoried lands.
