  • The Wild Cascades

    The Wild Cascades

    THE WILD CASCADES Fall, 1984 2 The Wild Cascades PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE ONCE THE LINES ARE DRAWN, THE BATTLE IS NOT OVER The North Cascades Conservation Council has developed a reputation for consistent, hard-hitting, responsible action to protect wildland resources in the Washington Cascades. It is perhaps best known for leading the fight to preserve and protect the North Cascades in the North Cascades National Park, the Pasayten and Glacier Peak Wilderness Areas, and the Ross Lake and Lake Chelan National Recreation Areas. Despite the recent passage of the Washington Wilderness Act, many areas which deserve and require wilderness designation remain unprotected. One of the goals of the N3C must be to assure protection for these areas. In this issue of the Wild Cascades we have analyzed the Washington Wilderness Act to see what we won and what still hangs in the balance (page ). The N3C will continue to fight to establish new wilderness areas, but there is also a new challenge. Our expertise is increasingly being sought by government agencies to assist in developing appropriate management plans and to support them against attempts to undermine such plans. The invitation to participate more fully in management activities will require considerable effort, but it represents a challenge and an opportunity that cannot be ignored. If we are to meet this challenge we will need members who are either knowledgable or willing to learn about an issue and to guide the Board in its actions. The Spring issue of the Wild Cascades carried a center section with two requests: 1) volunteers to assist and guide the organization on various issues; and 2) payment of dues.

Read Full License Page 1/25 Abstract Background: The spatial distribution and seasonal movement patterns of isolated populations of mountain goats (Oreamnos americanus) in the North Cascade range of Washington State is not fully understood. Determining harvest potential in these populations is challenging without a clear understanding of spatiotemporal movement, space use, and spatial overlap. Mountain goat populations in the North Cascades are fragmented and many have declined considerably from historic estimates. Identication of harvestable populations requires a clear understanding of population size, distribution, and movement. We investigated the population trends and spatial distribution of mountain goats in the Boulder River North Harvest Area in Boulder River Wilderness of Washington State. Methods: We reviewed recent mountain goat population estimates and used Global Positioning System collar data to determine year-round and seasonal home range distributions, spatial overlap within these ranges, and proximity of mountain goats to roads and trails. Results: We found 2 populations of mountain goats inhabiting the Whitehorse and Three Fingers Mountains in the Boulder River North Harvest Area.

    FOREST RANGER AT WORI( TilE 1961 \EARBOOK l T. s. IJEP \RTME T 0(· GRICULTU RE FOREST SER\ ICE I Tt:HlUl)ll. '1'\1110 HEGIO: FOREWORD The story of the Forest Ranger, key man in multiple-use management of the National Forests, is told in this booklet.Professionally trained, through college courses and the realities of work on the range and in the woods, he faces the challenge of making multiple use work. His is a tale of public service, hard work, long hours, but deep satisfaction. The Forest Ranger's work has been guided over the years by the principles of multiple use and sustained yield - "for the greatest good of the greatest number in the long run." With the enactment of the Multiple Use-Sustained Yield Act on June 12, 1960, he was given a mandate to guide him and broaden his understanding. It set forth the coordination requirenients needed in the management of land under his jurisdiction in the best long-time interest for the people of America. Multiple-use management provides for a system of zoning which recog- nizes that while there are great differences in the climate, vegetation, development and use of National Forest lands, itis possible to group similar areas for management purposes. In the first grouping are three zones based on climatic andvegetative similarities; the Crest Zone, the Intermediate Zone and theFoothill Zone. Superimposed on these, either within a single zone or in parts ofseveral are the Water and TravelInfluence Zones. Then, in a separate category are the Special Zones which include areas established byregulation for specific purposes; wilderness, scenic andarchaeological.

I will address each of these individually. H.R. 2334, Rocky Mountain National Park Wilderness and Indian Peaks Wilderness Expansion Act Section 6 of H.R. 2332 would remove acreage from the Arapaho National Recreation Area in the Arapaho-Roosevelt National Forest and designate the land as an addition to the existing Indian Peaks Wilderness Area. The Department of Agriculture supports the addition to the Indian Peaks Wilderness. We defer to the Department of the Interior regarding those portions of the bill affecting lands administered by the National Park Service. H.R. 3287, Tumacacori Highlands Wilderness Act of 2007 This bill would designate new wilderness areas on the Coronado National Forest in Arizona by expanding the Pajarita Wilderness approximately 5,500 acres (for a total of about 13,300 acres) and designating some additional 70,000 acres as the Tumacacori Highlands Wilderness.
