She is a college professor of fish biology, a licensed fishing guide, and an EMT for a Wisconsin Search and Rescue team, and has returned to the remote community of Towne, located in a secluded Rocky Mountain watershed surrounded by snow capped mountains. Newly widowed, Laura has no idea what to expect upon her unannounced arrival. Some of her old friends have passed away or moved on, but Laura is soon reunited with Ted Miller, her friend and a ranger with the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service. She'll also become involved with the FBI team of Skye Coulter and Phil Newberry, and undercover border agent Milo Damon. Longing for the tranquility of mountain life and the people who live there, Laura has returned to the valley to find inner peace and healing, but she soon finds herself trapped by the flames of a raging forest fire, and later she gets caught up in a bear bile poaching operation. And while she learns that even in a small mountain community, you can't escape greed, to even murder, she also finds that home is where the heart is. Return to Rocky Mountain Watershed is an expressive, humorous, and heartwarming novel that celebrates the joys and tribulations of small-town life and the majesty of the Rocky Mountains.

Book Rocky Mountain Watershed

Download or read book Rocky Mountain Watershed written by Bill Burch and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2010-11 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a secluded Rocky Mountain watershed, gathering rivulets of melting ice form from snow-capped peaks. They launch slowly down headwater creeks, meander through plush beaver meadows, and catapult between deep canyon walls, slowed only momentarily by a large reservoir. They then race through the white-water rapids of Devil's Gulp and eventually intersect Towne, a remote mountain community. Within this community lives a host of people with a variety of successes, failures, loves, ambitions, obsessions, hopes, and fears. There's Laura Menard, who left Wisconsin looking for a job but finds only fishing. When her car breaks down near Maggie's Corner, Laura discovers that people do care. There's former Wall Street broker Richard Whendelstat, who gave up the fast pace of life to open the Flies and Lies fishing resort. And then there's Bradley Hawkins, who came to the area on a fishing trip and never left; his wife now wants a divorce. With wry humor, joy for life, and an immense appreciation of the mountains and small-town living, Rocky Mountain Watershed narrates the stories of these characters, who face personal decisions that will change their lives and those around them-as well as affecting the common thread that binds them all, the river.

Book Watershed Management Problems in the Northern Rocky Mountain Region  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Watershed Management Problems in the Northern Rocky Mountain Region Classic Reprint written by Paul E. Packer and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-09-17 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Watershed Management Problems in the Northern Rocky Mountain Region It also contains large areas of range land where many livestock and big game animals graze. The method of managing these forests and ranges can have far reaching effects upon the condition of the vegetation and soil, and, hence, upon the quality, amount, and rate of water delivered to creeks and rivers. Since 1905, when the national forest systefi was created, methods of managing the timber and forage resources have been improved. Most of these improvements were developed mainly in the interest of better production of timber and forage. Few were directed specifically at betterment of watershed conditions although some have effected improvement incidentally. Management problems concerning the influence of various resource use activities on water and soil continue to arise. Some of these problems involve methods of main taining effective control of water and soil movement under continued timber harvesting, grazing, and recreational uses. Others are concerned with re storing control over water and soil on watersheds where it has been lost through overuse, abuse, or some catastrophe such as wildfire. Still others involve the management of timber and forage resources to improve water yielding characteristics of watersheds, especially the amount and quality of water and the time of year when it appears as streamflow.
