Wilderness Association host Bitch Creek hike

June 25, 2021 by Jackson Hole Radio

The Wyoming Wilderness Association Sunday is hosting a hike in the Bitch Creek area of the Jedediah Smith Wilderness area to train participants how to be come citizen scientists in solitude monitoring. Solitude monitoring is required of our national forest partners through a program called Wilderness Stewardship Performance.
Forests that manage designated Wilderness areas are scored on how well they address different elements such as solitude. Both the Caribou-Targhee National Forest and Bridger-Teton National Forest need help gathering more data so they can increase their score, and so they can better understand the user experience within the Wilderness areas they manage.
The unique opportunity is free and those who join will become equipped with the skills to be part of one of the easiest and most vital volunteer roles they can play. Participants will return to Bitch Creek on their own before the end of September to complete their own data collection.
The event takes place all day. For details and a meeting location volunteer trainees should contact peggie@wildwyo.org.
