Abstract
Provides analysis focusing on the three primary issues of the watershed: vegetative health and sustainability; increased recreational use and the associated resource impacts to wildlife, vegetation, soils, and water quality; and future maintenance of recreational infrastructures. Includes watershed characterization, issues and key questions, reference and current conditions, trends and interpretation, and management goals and recommendations. The late-successional reserve assessment is included as a separate chapter to fulfill assessment criteria identified in Northwest Forest Plan guidelines.
