North Fork Holston River Report 2017
North Fork Holston River 2017 From its origin in the southeast corner of Bland County, the North Fork of the Holston River flows more than 100 miles through Southwest Virginia before crossing the Tennessee State line near the community of Yuma. The river boasts an outstanding smallmouth bass population, and supports populations of many other fish species. Sport fish populations are sampled in the North Fork Holston River using boat- mounted electrofishing gear. This sampling equipment generates a controlled field of electricity around the boat that immobilizes the fish. The fish can then be collected with dipnets and placed in a livewell on the boat to recover. This method does not kill the fish, but only stuns the fish so that they can be collected, counted, measured and released. These population samples are typically conducted during April and May, when most fish are in shallow water. The relative abundance of each fish species is calculated as the number of fish collected per hour of sampling. This is also referred to as the catch rate or catch per unit of effort (CPE). The total length and weight of individual fish are measured to determine the condition of the fish and also to evaluate the size structure of the populations. A balanced size structure with representative numbers of both large and small fish is ideal. Mostly small fish in the population might mean that growth is slow or few fish are surviving to older ages. Mostly large fish in the population might mean that natural reproduction is lacking and there are not enough young fish being recruited to replace older fish that die. -

John Muir's Walk Across the Appalachians
John Muir’s Walk Across the Appalachians by Dan Styer [email protected] 15 November 2011 Submitted for publication in The John Muir Newsletter, W. R. (Bill) Swagerty, Editor, University of the Pacific [email protected] On 14 through 22 September, 1867, John Muir walked across the Appalachian Mountains in Tennessee, North Carolina, and Georgia, as part of his thousand-mile walk from Louisville, Kentucky, to Cedar Key, Florida. Muir recorded the story of his journey in a notebook [1], which was edited and published posthumously as A Thousand-Mile Walk To the Gulf [2]. As one would expect, Muir the aesthete exalted in “Most glorious billowy mountain scenery. Made many a halt at open places to take breath and to admire. … The scenery is far grander than any I ever before beheld. … Such an ocean of wooded, waving, swelling mountain beauty and grandeur is not to be described.” And Muir the naturalist delighted in ferns, asters, Liatris, and holly. But in addition, Muir the inventive young millwright (29 years old) made incisive observations concerning the mills and mines and technology of the region. Through study of Muir’s writings and of Civil War-era and other historical maps, and through two visits to the area, I have been able to retrace Muir’s overmountain route with relative certainty. Historical maps Muir’s journal provides only a sketchy outline of his route. During his entire thousand- mile journey Muir wrote only two extant letters – one on 9 September to Jeanne C. Carr, and one on 15 October to his brother David – neither of which sheds significant additional light on his route [3]. -
