Abstract

The goal of this project was to fully integrate recreation, fish, and wildlife resources on the Mt. Hood National Forest into trail planning. A secondary, but less explicit goal was to demonstrate that protecting fish and wildlife, and providing recreational experiences are mutually beneficial. These goals were achieved by reviewing the current literature on fish, wildlife, and recreation interactions; Identifying key fish and wildlife species, and sensitive habitats on the Mt. Hood National Forest; Developing trail planning guidelines that address critical needs of key fish and wildlife species, sensitive habitats and trail users; Developing trail planning guidelines that emphasize trail users' needs, positive fish and wildlife interactions with trail users, and interpretive opportunities; Identifying monitoring procedures to validate assumptions concerning wildlife, fish, and recreationists needs, and test the effectiveness of trail planning guidelines.
