Monitoring wolverines in northeast Oregon – 2011. Final Report. The Wolverine Foundation, Inc., Kuna, Idaho, USA. 2 INTRODUCTION The Oregon Conservation Strategy lists “species data gaps” and “research and monitoring needs” for some species where basic information on occurrence and habitat associations are not known (ODFW 2006; pages 367-368). For the Blue Mountains, East Cascades, and West Cascades Ecoregions of Oregon, the Strategy lists wolverine as a species for which status is unknown but habitat may be suitable to support wolverines. ODFW lists the wolverine as Threatened in Oregon and the USFWS has recently placed the species on the candidate list under the federal Endangered Species Act. Wolverine range in the contiguous United States had contracted substantially by the mid-1900s, probably because of high levels of human-caused mortality and very low immigration rates (Aubry et al.

    United States Department of FREMONT - WINEMA Agriculture NATIONAL FORESTS Forest Service Fremont-Winema National Forests Monitoring and August 2010 Evaluation Report Fiscal Year 2008 KEY FINDINGS Ecological Restoration: In 2008, the Fremont-Winema National Forests embarked on a 10-year stewardship contract with the Collins Companies’ Fremont Sawmill. This project is aimed at improving environmental conditions in the Lakeview Federal Stewardship Unit, while also supplying material to the sawmill. Under the 10-year stewardship contract, task orders are offered each year to provide forest products in conjunction with restoration service work to reduce fuels and improve watershed conditions. Over the 10 year stewardship contract’s life, at least 3,000 acres per year are projected to be thinned to improve forest health and reduce fuels. The contract is projected to offer at least 10 million board feet of forest products to Fremont Sawmill annually, as well as material for biomass energy. Also on the Forest, two Community Fuels Reduction Projects were completed. The Chiloquin Community Fuels Reduction Project was a 7-year project that reduced hazardous fuels on 1,400 acres within the wild land- urban interface (WUI) around the town of Chiloquin and was the first National Fire Plan project implemented on the Forest. This project was a cooperative effort with the Chiloquin-Agency Lake Rural Fire Protection District, the Klamath Tribes, and community residents. The second project was the Rocky Point Fuels Reduction Project. The Klamath Ranger District, with the assistance of local small business contractors and additional participation by the Bureau of Land Management and U.S.

  • Fort Clatsop by Unknown This Photo Shows a Replica of Fort Clatsop, the Modest Structure in Which the Corps of Discovery Spent the Winter of 1805-1806
    Fort Clatsop By Unknown This photo shows a replica of Fort Clatsop, the modest structure in which the Corps of Discovery spent the winter of 1805-1806. Probably built of fir and spruce logs, the fort measured only fifty feet by fifty feet, not a lot of space for more than thirty people. Nevertheless, it served its purpose well, offering Expedition members shelter from the incessant rains of the coast and giving them security against the Native peoples in the area. Although the Corps named the fort after the local Indians, they did not fully trust either the Clatsop or the related Chinook people, and kept both at arms length throughout their stay on the coast. The time at Fort Clatsop was well spent by Meriwether Lewis and William Clark. The captains caught up on their journal entries and worked on maps of the territory they had traversed since leaving St. Louis in May 1804. Many of the captains’ most important observations about the natural history and Native cultures of the Columbia River region date from this period. Other Expedition members hunted the abundant elk in the area, stood guard over the fort, prepared animal hides, or boiled seawater to make salt, but mostly they bided their time, eagerly anticipating returning east at the first sign of spring. The Corps set off in late March 1806, leaving the fort to Coboway, headman of the Clatsop. In a 1901 letter to writer Eva Emery Dye, a pioneer by the name of Joe Dobbins noted that the remains of Fort Clatsop were still evident in the 1850s, but “not a vestige of the fort was to be seen” when he visited Clatsop Plains in the summer of 1886.
