This grant is for conducting comprehensive vegetation mapping and quantitative classification within the Bighorn Canyon National Recreation Area (NRA), a key component of the Greater Yellowstone Inventory and Monitoring Network. The project seeks to classify 86 distinct vegetation types across the 55,600-acre managed area, spanning approximately 70 miles along the Bighorn River. The methodology involves sampling 258 plots to drive the quantitative classification process, ensuring three plots are collected per vegetation type. Additionally, 150-200 observation points will be utilized to support the overall mapping efforts. The study area covers lands managed by the National Park Service and Bureau of Land Management, excluding Crow Nation territory, for vital ecological assessment.

| Description: | THIS IS A NOTICE OF INTENT ONLY. Bighorn Canyon NRA is located within the Greater Yellowstone Inventory and Monitoring Network (GRYN). The Administrative Boundary encompasses land surrounding that part of the Bighorn River where the Yellowtail Reservoir is impounded behind Yellowtail Dam. It includes 55,600 land acres (22,500 ha), and straddles the Bighorn River for approximately 70 miles (113km). Land within the legislatively approved BICA Administrative Boundary is owned by the National Park Service, the Bureau of Land Management, and the Crow Nation. The BICA Managed Area Boundary excludes those portions of the Administrative Boundary that overlap Crow Nation land. Based on the preliminary classification of 86 vegetation types at BICA and a minimum sample of three plots per type, a total of 258 plots will be necessary to drive the quantitative classification process. In addition, data from approximately 150-200 observation points will be collected to support mapping. A summary of project costs by task and year is presented in tables I and II. Details of each task in this project are presented below. |
