UMNP Mountains Manual 2017
Mountain Adventures Manual utahmasternaturalist.org June 2017 UMN/Manual/2017-03pr Welcome to Utah Master Naturalist! Utah Master Naturalist was developed to help you initiate or continue your own personal journey to increase your understanding of, and appreciation for, Utah’s amazing natural world. We will explore and learn aBout the major ecosystems of Utah, the plant and animal communities that depend upon those systems, and our role in shaping our past, in determining our future, and as stewards of the land. Utah Master Naturalist is a certification program developed By Utah State University Extension with the partnership of more than 25 other organizations in Utah. The mission of Utah Master Naturalist is to develop well-informed volunteers and professionals who provide education, outreach, and service promoting stewardship of natural resources within their communities. Our goal, then, is to assist you in assisting others to develop a greater appreciation and respect for Utah’s Beautiful natural world. “When we see the land as a community to which we belong, we may begin to use it with love and respect.” - Aldo Leopold Participating in a Utah Master Naturalist course provides each of us opportunities to learn not only from the instructors and guest speaKers, But also from each other. We each arrive at a Utah Master Naturalist course with our own rich collection of knowledge and experiences, and we have a unique opportunity to share that Knowledge with each other. This helps us learn and grow not just as individuals, but together as a group with the understanding that there is always more to learn, and more to share. -

Crater National Forest, 1922, Corrected by (1925) Kuenzel, Paul
Crater National Forest, 1922, corrected by (1925) Kuenzel, Paul E. P. E. Kuenzel. P. E. K. Kuenzel started his drafting career in Portland, Oregon in 1918 with the contracting firm of Michael Lynott, Inc. By 1919 he was working as a draftsman for the Forest Service’s District 6 and continued until 1925 when he transferred to the city of Portland’s Bureau of Construction (Dept. of Public Works) as a draftsman. Map of Automobile Roads, State of Washington, 1922, drawn by Crater National Forest, 1919, corrected by (1922, 1925) Mt. Hood National Forest, 1924, compiled by (1927, 1931, 1935) Olympic National Forest, 1923, compiled by (1930) *E. L. Unknown cartographer responsible for two early numbers in the Oregon Recreation map series, No. 3, “McKenzie Recreation Area” and No. 5, “Lake o’ Woods Recreation Area” both dated 1936. *V. H. L. Unknown cartographer responsible for three numbers in the Washington Recreation map series, No. 5, “Twin Buttes Recreation Area” and No. 6, “Spirit Lake Recreation Area” and No. 10, “Mt.

Lord first appears in the 1917 edition of the Portland city directory as a draftsman, but without an employer listed by his name. That changed in 1918 when he began work in District 6’s Engineer Division as noted in the city directory. After 1918, he was listed in the city directory alternately as a “surveyor” or as a “civil engineer” and in 1926 as a “clerk.” The Forest Service directories from 1924 to 1926 list Lord in the Engineering Section of District 6 working on roads. -

Also, please contact me if you find any errors or have a map that has not been included in the cartobibliography ACKNOWLEDGMENTS In the process of compiling this work, I have met many dedicated cartographers, Forest Service staff, academic and public librarians, archivists, and entrepreneurs. I first would like to acknowledge the gracious assistance of Bob Malcolm Super- visory Cartographer of Region 2 in Golden, Colorado who opened up the Region’s archive of maps and atlases to me in November of 2005. Also, I am indebted to long-time map librarians Christopher Thiry, Janet Collins, Donna Koepp, and Stanley Stevens for their early encouragement and consistent support of this project. In the fall of 2013, I was awarded a fellowship by The Pinchot Institute for Conservation and the Grey Towers National Historic Site. The Scholar in Resi- dence program of the Grey Towers Heritage Association allowed me time to write and edit my research on the mapping of the National Forest System in an office in Gifford Pinchot’s ancestral home. -
