Landscape Context of Bighorn Canyon National Recreation Area
Some of the land and resource management challenges faced by stewards of Bighorn Canyon National Recreation Area (BICA) relate to how BICA fits within the surrounding landscape. BICA is a relatively narrow and elongated stretch of land along the canyon of the Bighorn River, which flows north from Wyoming into Montana. Understanding BICA’s resources in a landscape context was formally identified as a priority for park managers in the 2005 Vital Signs Monitoring Plan for the Greater Yellowstone Network. In 2010 the Inventory and Monitoring Division of the National Park Service provided a suite of standard landscape metrics, data sources, and analytical tools for helping parks quantify and document resource conservation vulnerability and opportunity in a landscape context. The study area within a 30-kilometer buffer around and including BICA’s managed lands represents the landscape for reporting on housing, population, roads, land cover, conservation status, and climate.
