The two numbers <br />following the dash indicate the year a nest was first located. <br />BIG GAME <br />Elk, mule deer and black bear are commonly observed in the study area. They have been <br />frequently observed during previous years studies in the area as well. There are also suitable <br />conditions in the area for mountain lions. <br />Elk were observed during the studies in mountain shrub and aspen habitat in the study area. <br />One cow elk with a calf was observed in the Dry Fork drainage in early June. By the time studies <br />were completed most elk had moved on to higher elevations and the few that remained in the <br />area were observed only infrequently. A few elk do winter at lower elevations in the project area. <br />However, during surveys the last two winters less than ten elk total were observed each winter in <br />the area of Panels 2 through 4 from late December through mid-April. Lack of winter use in the <br />area by elk has been observed by Brandon Diamond (CDOW) during his classification surveys in <br />January each year. Observations over the years show that much of the area where development <br />activity is proposed is spring and fall transition range with little activity in the area during the <br />summer and winter. <br />13
