    United States Department of Agriculture Wilderness Visitors and Forest Service Recreation Impacts: Baseline Rocky Mountain Research Station Data Available for Twentieth General Technical Report RMRS-GTR-117 Century Conditions September 2003 David N. Cole Vita Wright Abstract __________________________________________ Cole, David N.; Wright, Vita. 2003. Wilderness visitors and recreation impacts: baseline data available for twentieth century conditions. Gen. Tech. Rep. RMRS-GTR-117. Ogden, UT: U.S. Department of Agriculture, Forest Service, Rocky Mountain Research Station. 52 p. This report provides an assessment and compilation of recreation-related monitoring data sources across the National Wilderness Preservation System (NWPS). Telephone interviews with managers of all units of the NWPS and a literature search were conducted to locate studies that provide campsite impact data, trail impact data, and information about visitor characteristics. Of the 628 wildernesses that comprised the NWPS in January 2000, 51 percent had baseline campsite data, 9 percent had trail condition data and 24 percent had data on visitor characteristics. Wildernesses managed by the Forest Service and National Park Service were much more likely to have data than wildernesses managed by the Bureau of Land Management and Fish and Wildlife Service. Both unpublished data collected by the management agencies and data published in reports are included. Extensive appendices provide detailed information about available data for every study that we located. These have been organized by wilderness so that it is easy to locate all the information available for each wilderness in the NWPS. Keywords: campsite condition, monitoring, National Wilderness Preservation System, trail condition, visitor characteristics The Authors _______________________________________ David N.

  • MOUNT SHASTA & CASTLE CRAGS WILDERNESS Climbing Ranger
    MOUNT SHASTA & CASTLE CRAGS WILDERNESS Climbing Ranger Report 2017 SEARCH, RESCUE, SELF-RESCUE, FATALITY = 9 GARBAGE PACKED OUT ON FOOT BY RANGERS = 45 gallons HUMAN WASTE FOUND/REMOVED ON FOOT BY RANGERS (#) = 63 or 189 lbs. SUMMIT PASSES SOLD = 6,817 2017 CLIMBING & WEATHER SEASON SUMMARY: The 2017 Mount Shasta climbing season was fantastic. A banner winter lead to a long lasting climbing season with snow on the mountain and good climbing conditions into July. Search and Rescue incidents were below average. Unfortunately, we had one fatality this season that was not climbing related. Four climbing rangers managed the Mount Shasta and Castle Crags Wilderness areas. The Helen Lake camp was set up in early May and staffed every weekend throughout the summer season. Regular patrols took place on all routes as access opened up from the heavy winter snow drifts. Notable projects this year include the all new trailhead kiosks that were installed at all major trailheads around the mountain, the new Bunny Flat 3-panel informational kiosk and trailhead features, the ongoing Glacier re-photo project and the annual Helicopter Search & Rescue Training, hosted by the mountain rangers. Nick Meyers continues as the Lead Ranger and is backed up by longtime seasonal ranger Forrest Coots. Newer to the group are Andrew Kiefer and Paul Moore, both outstanding additions. Regular patrols, trail and trailhead maintenance and thousands of visitor contacts were conducted all spring, summer and fall.

  • Supplemental Information This Project Provides the Opportunity to Enhance Experiences and Conservation Within Two Congressionall
    Shasta-Trinity National Forest Supplemental Information FY 2011 LWCF Submittal œ FY2010 Shasta-Trinity Designated Area Consolidations œ Wilderness and NRA Supplemental Information This project provides the opportunity to enhance experiences and conservation within two Congressionally designated areas at key recreation locations on lakeshores within tributaries to arguably the two most important River Systems in California, the Sacramento and the Klamath. The Shasta-Trinity is actively involved in a programmatic effort to consolidate fragmented land ownership on the Forest, particularly in Congressionally designated areas. These two parcels represent the second and third highest priority for acquisition on the Forest. Past efforts to acquire them through exchange or purchase have failed. Involvement of the Trust for Public Lands opens a new opportunity to acquire these properties that have a high risk of subdivision and development. Castle Lake Parcel – Shoreline and Wilderness – Castle Lake presents a rare opportunity for visitors to find a beautiful and classic alpine lake at the end of a year-round paved road, only about nine miles from Interstate 5. The view is spectacular of granitic cliffs dotted with gnarly pine trees, and the location is among the most popular destinations in the Mt. Shasta area, receiving heavy year-round use. Castle Lake is startlingly clear and so similar an ecosystem to Lake Tahoe that the University of California has established a research camp on the National Forest part of the shoreline, and the studies here are used as a benchmark for not only Lake Tahoe, but mountain lakes throughout the world. This lake is the longest continuously monitored mountain lake ecosystem in the western hemisphere and hundreds of scientific research projects and theses have been conducted here.
