State of the Park Report for Rocky Mountain National Park. State of the Park Series No. 50. National Park Service, Washington, DC. On the cover: Hallett Peak reflected in Dream Lake. NPS Photo. Disclaimer. This State of the Park report summarizes the current condition of park resources, visitor experience, and park infrastructure as assessed by a combination of available factual information and the expert opinion and professional judgment of park staff and subject matter experts. The internet version of this report provides additional details and sources of information about the findings summarized in the report, including references, accounts on the origin and quality of the data, and the methods and analytic approaches used in data collection and assessments of condition. This report provides evaluations of status and trends based on interpretation by NPS scientists and managers of both quantitative and non-quantitative assessments and observations.

Executive Summary The mission of the National Park Service is to preserve unimpaired the natural and cultural resources and values of national parks for the enjoyment, education, and inspiration of this and future generations. NPS Management Policies (2006) state that “The Service will also strive to ensure that park resources and values are passed on to future generations in a condition that is as good as, or better than, the conditions that exist today.” As part of the stewardship of national parks for the American people, the NPS has begun to develop State of the Park reports to assess the overall status and trends of each park’s resources.

Cory Gardner holding an insignificant one point lead over first-term incumbent Mark Udall. In the race for Governor, incumbent John Hickenlooper holds a 7 point lead over former Congressman Bob Beauprez who is making his second run for this office. In the election for U.S. Senate, Colorado voters who are likely to cast a ballot next month divide their vote – 47% for Republican challenger Cory Gardner and 46% for Democratic incumbent Mark Udall. Another 4% say they will vote for a different candidate and 3% remain undecided. In the race for Colorado Governor, 50% of likely voters support Democratic incumbent John Hickenlooper and 43% support GOP challenger Bob Beauprez. Another 3% say they will vote for a different candidate and 4% remain undecided. All major party candidates have strong support among their partisan bases. Specifically, 93% of Democrats support Hickenlooper for governor and 92% support Udall for senator, while 85% of Republicans support Beauprez and 86% support Gardner. Independent voters in Colorado have a clearer preference for one office than they do for the other.

  • February 14, 2019 Published on CU Connections (
    CU Connections Issue: February 14, 2019 Published on CU Connections (https://connections.cu.edu) Regents approve civics literacy initiative[1] The CU Board of Regents on Wednesday approved a slate of motions aimed at expanding civics education across the CU system. The work was initiated in 2017 by Regent John Carson, R-Highlands Ranch, and brought to the board by its University Affairs Committee. During its Wednesday meeting at CU South Denver in Lone Tree, the board voted on four motions, each of which was passed, though none unanimously. The resolutions reflected input from the Faculty Council, which requested that the regents not create additional barriers to student admission or graduation, that the wishes of the individual campuses be respected and that the curriculum be determined by faculty. “I feel like we’ve reached a mutual agreement that this is an area we should all focus on,” said Carson, whose presentation[2] included background calling for improved civics literacy among Americans. “Nothing today is coming in the form of a mandate.” The motions the regents approved call for the following: That faculty be encouraged to launch a civics-focused certificate, with a fall 2019 announcement followed by courses beginning in 2020. (Passed 8-1, with Regent Linda Shoemaker, D-Boulder, opposing.) That the Regents Online Resolution already in place be amended to recommend that one of the courses focused on concurrent enrollment be a civics course, available in 2020 for CU and high school students in Colorado. (Passed 6-3, with Regents Shoemaker, Irene Griego, D-Lakewood, and Lesley Smith, D-Boulder, opposing.) That administration and faculty work to conduct a survey of a sampling of the incoming class of 2019 freshmen to determine a base level of civics knowledge among Colorado high school graduates.
