SERIES Copyright by WiswaU The Village of Estes Park nestles in a quiet little valley, surrounded by mountains Page two An Appreciation of Rocky Mountain National Park By ENOS A. MILLS, Author of "Wild Life on the Rockies," "The Rocky Mountain Wonderland," etc. Written Especially fer the United States Railroad Administration j]HE Rocky Mountain National Park is a marvelous grouping of gentle­ ness and grandeur; an eloquent, wordless hymn, sung in silent, poetic pictures; a wilderness mountain world of groves and grass plots, crags and canyons, rounded lakes with shadow-matted shores that rest in peace within the purple forest. There are wild flowers of every color, and many a silken meadow edged with ferns. Brokenness and beauty, terrace upon terrace, a magnificent hanging wild garden. Over these terraces waters rush and pour. From ice-sculptured, snow-piled peaks, young and eager streams leap in white cascades between crowding cliffs and pines. Through this wildness winds the trail, with its secrets of the centuries, where adventures come and go and where the magic camp fire blossoms in the night. In these primeval scenes the grizzly bear gives to the wilderness its master spell; the mountain ram poses on the cliff; the laughing, varied voice of the coyote echoes when the afterglow falls; the home-loving beaver builds his willow-fringed hut; the birds sing; the cheerful chipmunk frolics and never grows up; and here the world stays young. The Rocky Mountain National Park holds adventure for every visitor.

Scott (Image source: NRCS exigent EWP) U.S. Forest Service National Stream and Aquatic Ecology Center Fort Collins, Colorado David H. Levinson, PhD U.S. Forest Service National Stream and Aquatic Ecology Center Fort Collins, Colorado Overview of Problem • Common flood analysis procedures do not facilitate a number of needs, such as: • Verification of at-a-station flood-frequency and regional regression analyses results • Quantifiable procedure for identifying and ranking extreme floods • Clear comparisons of how flood magnitudes and hazards vary across regions • Simple language for communicating expected flood hazards with the public and land managers Estes Park, Colorado Potential Solution • A space-for-time substitution can be utilized to address these needs. Procedure: • Regressions of record peak discharges at long-term streamgages used to predict the expected flood potential (across zones of similar flood response) • Upper 90% prediction limit provides the maximum likely flood potential (floods greater than this limit defined as extreme) • Paleoflood data and shorter streamgage records can be utilized • Flood hazards can easily be compared between zones (using developed indices) • Seasonality and trend analyses can be performed (currently

  • Final Grand Ditch Report Rocky Mountain National Park, CO ______Covey Potter and Dr
    Final Grand Ditch Report Rocky Mountain National Park, CO _________________________________ Covey Potter and Dr. David Cooper BACKGROUND In 2003 the Grand Ditch, located on the east-facing slope of the Never Summer Range within Rocky Mountain National Park, breached in a reach above Lulu Creek; inundating the creek, several km of the Colorado River and its floodplains, and the Lulu City wetland with more than 36,000 m3 of sediment and debris (RMNP Fact Sheet 2010) (Figure 1 in appendix 3). Sediment deposits from this event have altered stream channels, flood plains, streamside water table, and riparian vegetation. Riparian vegetation is sensitive to alterations in groundwater, limiting the establishment of critical plant species, shifting species composition, affecting ecosystem functions, and causing die back and mortality (Rood and Mahoney 1990, Smith et al. 1991, Dixon and Johnson 1999). Riparian vegetation composition is determined in part by available shallow groundwater (Brinson et al. 1985, Van Coller et al. 2000) that may be linked to stream water (Rood et al. 2003, Cooper and Merritt in press). STUDY AREA The restoration study site is in western Rocky Mountain National Park along the headwaters of the Colorado River, its tributaries, and adjacent wetlands. The Kawuneeche valley ranges from 2,700 – 3,100 m above sea level and is flanked by two mountain ranges that rise 1,200 m above the valley floor. The Never Summer Mountains to the west were formed by a now-extinct volcanic chain. With most of the volcanic rock eroded away, igneous granitic and metamorphic formations dominate covered by an extensive lateral moraine from Pleistocene glaciations and areas of unstable hydrologically-altered welded tuff.

Goodrich Department of Forest and Rangeland Stewardship In partial fulfillment of the requirements For the Degree of Master of Science Colorado State University Fort Collins, Colorado Spring 2016 Master’s Committee: Advisor: Mark Paschke Co-advisor: Paul Meiman David A. Steingraeber Jayne Jonas-Bratten Copyright by Amy C. Goodrich 2016 All Rights Reserved ABSTRACT ASSESSING VEGETATION REESTABLISHMENT ON DISTURBED HIGH MOUNTAIN LAKESHORES FOLLOWING HISTORIC DAM REMOVAL IN ROCKY MOUNTAIN NATIONAL PARK, COLORADO, USA Dam removal has entered the public spotlight in recent years, due to growing safety, economic, and environmental concerns related to dams. Removal is increasingly seen as a way to address not only the risks associated with aging and/or obsolete dams, but also as a tool for ecological restoration. In 1982, then-79-year-old Lawn Lake Dam in Rocky Mountain National Park failed, resulting in three deaths, and extensive monetary damages and destruction of natural resources within the Park. This was followed by a policy decision to remove three dams in the Park between 1988 and 1990, returning the former reservoirs to their previous natural lake water levels, and re-exposing nearly 13 hectares of scoured shoreline, completely denuded of vegetation by approximately 80 years of inundation. The disturbed lakeshore areas were left to undergo passive restoration. In the years immediately following dam removal, one short-term (3 year) revegetation study was conducted at Lawn Lake, and informal observational data were gathered by NPS personnel at a handful of plots established at the disturbed lakeshores of Bluebird, Sandbeach, and Pear Lakes.

  • PAAC Hermit Park Report
    An Archaeological Survey of a Portion of the Hermit Park Locality, Larimer County, Colorado By Kevin D. Black Principal Investigator Colorado Historical Society Sponsored by Colorado Historical Society Office of the State Archaeologist of Colorado Program for Avocational Archaeological Certification Denver, Colorado Colorado State Permit #2007–21 August 2008 Abstract In July 2007 the seventh in a series of PAAC Summer Training Surveys was initiated in southern Larimer County at Hermit Park, a recent acquisition for county open space lands. The survey covered about 360 acres of the park, with the help of 18 PAAC volunteers. Surprisingly, prehistoric sites were not encountered, just two isolated finds (IFs) of debitage. But eight sites and seven IFs dating to the Historic period were recorded. The documented sites are primarily ranching-related features and artifact scatters dating to the late 19th and early-mid 20th centuries. Minor evidence for exploration of minerals is present as well. Modern land use impacts, including diverse recreational activities, are widespread in Hermit Park and may in some way contribute to the paucity of archaeological remains found. ii Table of Contents Page # Abstract.................................................................................................................................ii Management Information Form .......................................................................................v List of Figures ....................................................................................................................vii
