Wildlife-Habitat Relationships of the Grande Ronde River
Wildlife-Habitat Relationships of the Grande Ronde River by Aryn E. Hayden ABSTRACT In selecting habitat animal species require food, water and adequate cover. When these criteria are taken into account it appears that habitats utilized by terrestrial wildlife along the Grande Ronde River change longitudinally from mixed conifer forests to ponderosa pine forests in the headwaters and middle reaches to grassland and shrub-steppe in the lower reaches. Species diversity of mammals, birds and reptiles within these habitats will also decrease towards the lower reaches to some degree as habitat changes along the Grande Ronde River. A potential decrease in species diversity as habitat changes may indicate that habitat specialist species are more likely to be found in the headwaters of and middle reaches while habitat generalists are likely to be found in the middle and lower reaches of the Grande Ronde River. This concept of decreasing species diversity in a downstream gradient indicates that the River Continuum Concept, traditionally an aquatic hypothesis, may have some applicability to distributions of terrestrial wildlife in the context of riverine ecosystems. Species diversity of terrestrial wildlife is also heavily influenced by the presence of riparian vegetation along the river. Riparian vegetation is likely to be found within the headwaters and middle reaches of the Grande Ronde River and in patches pertaining to locations of physical complexity along the river such as confluences with tributaries. Riparian vegetation provides complex habitat for mammals and birds that live along the river and those that utilize riparian habitat for foraging, water requirements, migration or other activities necessary for survival. -
Geographic Variations in Water Quality and Recreational Use Along the Upper Wallowa River and Selected Tributaries
AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Theodore R. McDowellfor the degree ofDoctor of Philosophy in Geography presented on December 21, 1979 Title:Geographic Variations in Water Quality and Recreational Use Along the Upper Wallowa River and Selected Tributaries Abstract approved: Redacted for privacy Assistant Pro(sp)sornarl es Rosenfeld Physical, chemical and bacterial water quality parameters of the upper Wallowa River were sampled periodically between July 2, 1978 and June 9, 1979 at nine stream and lake sampling sites.Water upstream from Wallowa Lake was typified by low nutrient concentra- tions ( generally below detectable limits except for nitrates), low. specific conductivity (50-99 micromhos), and water temperatures below 15°C.Results of bacterial sampling were inconclusive, but sites and areas warranting further study were identified. An intensive study of spatial variations in bacterial water quality and recreational use was conducted at 15 stream and lake sampling sites on the East Fork of the Wallowa River between July 5 and September 3, 1979.Streamflow, precipitation, water temperatures, and fecal coliform bacteria counts were determined two or three times per week and during storm events.Levels and patterns of recreational use were also monitored during that period.Fecal coliform counts varied significantly (at the 0.001 p level) with geographic patterns of recreational use, but there was no significant relationship between levels of recreational use.Bacterial water quality also varied signi- ficantly (at the 0.001 p level) between -

I Preface The actual date of the founding of the Oregon State Parks System is less than thirty years ago but the fundamental principles are much older, supported by a few of the leading park people of that time. They were an innovation as so little had been done by any state in the Union. The Oregon parks system owes its beginning to the thought of highway beautification advocated by many leaders of the state, including the Governors, the early State Highway Commissioners and Highway Engi- neers. -
Recreation Overview
APPENDIX 8-1 RECREATION OVERVIEW SUMMARY: Recreation and tourism are increasingly important parts of Wallowa County’s economy. Overall tourism and recreation spending has doubled over the last ten years, with an increased emphasis on conventional tourism (As opposed to more traditional recreation such as hunting, fishing and backcountry trips, conventional tourism is more centered on nice lodging, fine dining, shopping and sight seeing). People come to Wallowa County for scenery, solitude, camping, picnicking, boating, snow and water skiing, snowmobiling, auto touring, hiking and backpacking, horseback riding, fishing, hunting, and to visit the shops, galleries and restaurants in the Joseph and the Wallowa Lake area.. Recreation is centered around Wallowa Lake and the Eagle Cap Wilderness and to a lesser extent the streams and rivers of the County including the Snake River and the Hells Canyon National Recreation Area. Tourism is centered around Joseph and the Wallowa Lake area. PAST AND PRESENT: Recreation and tourism are considered a primary part of the County’s economy , and are the fastest growing segment of the economy. Wallowa Lake and Joseph are the center of tourism in the County and the State Park at Wallowa Lake is a major attraction. The Joseph Economic Improvement District and resultant improvements has turned Joseph into a center for tourism, and has led to a doubling of businesses on main street. This industry is highly seasonal and operates from late May to mid October, with peak activity from the first of July to mid October. The tourist facilities at the lake, including the State Park parking area, the moorage and docks, short term rentals, the motels, and the restaurants, now stand idle during the winter months. -

Field-Trip Guide to the Vents, Dikes, Stratigraphy, and Structure of the Columbia River Basalt Group, Eastern Oregon and Southeastern Washington Scientific Investigations Report 2017–5022–N U.S. Department of the Interior U.S. Geological Survey Cover. Palouse Falls, Washington. The Palouse River originates in Idaho and flows westward before it enters the Snake River near Lyons Ferry, Washington. About 10 kilometers north of this confluence, the river has eroded through the Wanapum Basalt and upper portion of the Grande Ronde Basalt to produce Palouse Falls, where the river drops 60 meters (198 feet) into the plunge pool below. The river’s course was created during the cataclysmic Missoula floods of the Pleistocene as ice dams along the Clark Fork River in Idaho periodically broke and reformed. These events released water from Glacial Lake Missoula, with the resulting floods into Washington creating the Channeled Scablands and Glacial Lake Lewis. Palouse Falls was created by headward erosion of these floodwaters as they spilled over the basalt into the Snake River. After the last of the floodwaters receded, the Palouse River began to follow the scabland channel it resides in today. Photograph by Stephen P. Reidel.

CONFLICTS in the MULTIPLE USE of WALLOWA LAKE Abstract Approved Redacted for Privacy Keith W
AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF KENNETH MAC KENZIE CRAIG for the MASTER OF SCIENCE (Name) (Degree) in GEOGRAPHY presented on May 3, 1967 (Major) (Date) Title: CONFLICTS IN THE MULTIPLE USE OF WALLOWA LAKE Abstract approved Redacted for Privacy Keith W. Muckleston The purpose of this thesis is to examine the problem of the increasing competition between recreation and irrigation at Wallowa Lake. Originally Wallowa Lake was an abundant source of fish for the Indians but the advent of irrigation in the area by the early o settlers eliminated the blueback salmon (Ancorhynchus nerka) run that spawned in the lake. This was caused by the establishment of unscreened irrigation ditches in the Wallowa River below the lake and the construction of a concrete dam in the outlet of the lake by . the Associated Ditch Companies. The dam raised the natural level of the lake 28.4 feet, creating an irrigation reservoir. The use of this water for irrigation purposes has caused considerable erosion along the steep banks of the east and west moraines, reducing the desirability of the beaches and hampering the use of boating facilities. The Pacific Power and Light Company used a considerable amount of water from the lake for their generating plant in Joseph from 1929 to 1956. This limited the number of times the lake was filled to capacity, lessening the amount of sloughing of the relatively undeveloped shoreline property around the lake since the greatest damage occurred when the lake was full. After 1950, many more people purchased lots and built cabins on the west moraine and became increasingly aware of the erosion of their property. -

STEEN’S WILDERNESS SUMMER HORSEPACK ADVENTURES 64591 Steen Rd TRIPS Joseph, OR 97846 541-432-6545 [email protected] steens-packtrips.com WHERE DO THE TRIPS GO Our trips can go anywhere in Hells Canyon and the Eagle Cap Wilderness. We begin in Hells canyon in the spring, exploring wide open country that was the winter range for the Nez pierce Indians and home to many homesteaders. We run our Hells Canyon trips in April, May & June. After that it gets too hot in the canyon for our comfort and we move to the Eagle Cap Wilderness where the snow has just began to clear on the high passes and trails are beginning to open up after a long winter & spring of trees blowing down. Mid July through mid September is a great time to be in the Eagle Cap wilderness exploring The High Alpine country and fishing the high mountain lakes. TRIP STARTING POINT We will meet you at either our ranch 2 miles from Joseph, OR or at the designated trailhead. We will discuss this prior to the trip. GETTING TO JOSEPH, OREGON If you are driving, you can reach Joseph by taking Highway 82 off of I 84 in LaGrande or by taking Highway 3 from Lewiston, ID. Joseph is 76 miles from LaGrande and 80 miles from Lewiston. If you will not be driving in to Joseph, we can make arrangements to pick you up at the airport in Lewiston, Walla Walla, Pendleton, or Pasco. LODGING Most of our guests arrive in Joseph a day or two prior to their trip. -

Proceedings of a Conference on Native Plant Restoration and Management on Public Lands in the Pacific Northwest: Rare Plants, Invasive Species and Ecosystem Management LaSells Stewart Center, Oregon State University Corvallis, Oregon Feb. 11-13, 2003 Edited and compiled by Thomas N. Kaye, Melanie Gisler, and Rob Fiegener A symposium co-sponsored by: USDI Bureau of Land Management, Institute for Applied Ecology, USDA Forest Service, Native Plant Society of Oregon Proceedings of a Conference on Native Plant Restoration and Management on Public Lands in the Pacific Northwest: Rare Plants, Invasive Species, and Ecosystem Management , Corvallis, Oregon, Feb. 11-13, 2003 Preface: Native plant conservation is a multi-disciplinary field and its success requires an integrated approach. Plant restoration and management on public lands in the Pacific Northwest face many challenges but also present opportunities for cooperative projects, research, on-the- ground action, and community outreach. On February 11-13, 2003, 300 people joined together for a symposium on native plant management in the Pacific Northwest to share information and discuss experiences. Topics covered rare and endangered species conservation and reintroduction, invasive plants, species and habitat restoration, ecosystems, and policy. The meeting featured talks by experts in these fields, and the audience included biologists, land managers, non-profit organizations, and the general public. Michael Way, a member of the International Team for the Millennium Seed Bank Project from the Royal Botanical Gardens, Kew, was our keynote speaker. Mr. Way is the International Coordinator for the Americas and is responsible for the development of seed conservation projects with partners in Mexico, Chile, and the USA.
