Forest Admission?
This wild places program examines proposed rules affecting outfitter guides in the National Forests. Will these rules make it harder, or more expensive, for you to get into Forest Service wilderness? Steve explores the issue with the help of: Jim Bedwell, Director of Recreation, Heritage, and Volunteer Resources for the National Forest Service in Washington, D.C. Todd Vogel, Education and Stewardship director for the Friends of the Inyo, and co-owner of Sierra Mountain Center, a commercial guide service Dave Simon, Director of outdoor Activities for the Sierra Club Matt Bloom, owner of the Kennedy Meadows Resort and Pack Station, on the edge of the Emigrant Wilderness in California’s Stanislaus National Forest. The Forest Service issued a proposed rule change titled, Proposed Directives for Forest Service Outfitting and Guiding Special Use Permits and Insurance Requirements for Forest Service Special Use Permits. This rule is open for public comments through February 19, 2008. An Arizona-based group, the River Runners for Wilderness, sounded an ominous alert about some possible problems with this rule in November of 2007. Later, the Casper Star-Tribune published an article by Brodie Farquhar presenting the controversy. We suggest you take a look at the revised rules yourself, and then make your own comments to the Forest Service if you think your access will be affected.

Skiing More of Utah
This wild places program provides a ski guide’s advice on how to get away from the crowds at the very popular ski resorts in Utah. Guest correspondent Kurt Repanshek visited the Mill Creek trailhead in the Wasatch-Cache National Forest near Salt Lake City. There he met backcountry ski guide and guide book author Tyson Bradley. Tyson wrote the book, Backcountry Skiing Utah. Tyson talks about the many mountain ranges in Utah that provide a wide range of exceptional opportunities for backcountry and wilderness skiing, whether you’re an advanced-beginner cross country skier, or you’re an expert alpine or telemark skier. He points out that if you are comfortable on your skis, and you’re fit enough to hike three miles and gain a thousand feet, then you’re plenty fit to get into the backcountry on terrain appropriate for your skills. Tyson also mentions that sometimes in the deep, dry snow of Utah, you might have a greater chance to be at risk from avalanches. Our edition number 74, Staying on Top of the Snow, provides an introduction to avalanche safety. One of the most important things to do before you go out is to check with the Utah Avalanche Center for the day’s forecast. Kurt Repanshek regularly writes and occasionally podcasts on his National Parks Traveler web-zine.
