		Mountain yellow-legged frogs are moderately sized, about 40 to 80 millimeters (mm) (1.5 to 3 inches (in)) from snout to urostyle (the pointed bone at the base of the backbone) (Jennings and Hayes 1994; Zweifel 1955).
		Discreteness: The range of the mountain yellow-legged frog is divided by a natural geographic barrier, the Tehachapi Mountains, which isolate Sierran frogs from those in the mountains of southern California.
		Virtually all streams in the mountains of southern California contain populations of introduced rainbow trout, and trout are routinely planted in Dark Canyon, Fuller Mill Creek in the San Jacinto Mountains, and City Creek in the San Bernardino Mountains.

	Oregon Historic Trails Fund
		The Oregon Trail is the predominant symbol of American westward expansion in the Nineteenth Century, a period of Manifest Destiny when the nation realized its dream of stretching from ocean to ocean.
		The Oregon Trail was at the core of the largest and longest mass migration in United States history to that time and provided the means for strengthening American claims on the Pacific Northwest.
		To some emigrants, the idea of "Oregon" meant personal or religious freedom; to others, it was patriotic action against the British (who were vying for control of the Oregon's natural resources); to others, in meant free land; and still to others, a life away from the disease-ridden swamps of the Mississippi River valleys.

	Audubon WatchList - Mountain Quail
		Mountain Quail can be quite difficult to see, but in the spring and summer, males' loud, frequently-given "queark" calls announce the presence of this species in an area.
		Mountain Quail are found year-round in the major mountain ranges of the West Coast of North America--the Sierra Nevada, Cascade, and Coast Ranges.
		Mountain Quail declined greatly in eastern Washington, eastern Oregon, and Nevada during the last half of the 1900s, and the species has nearly been extirpated from Idaho, where it was once common.

		Oregon adopted many electorial reforms proposed during the Progressive Era, due to the efforts of William S. U'Ren and his Direct Legislation League.
		Her forests have historically made Oregon one of the nation's major timber production or logging states, but forest fires (such as the Tillamook Burn), over-harvesting, and law suits over the proper management of the extensive federal forest holdings have reduced the amount of timber produced.

	USGS Geology in the Parks
		Along these roughly north-south-trending faults mountains were uplifted and valleys down-dropped, producing the distinctive alternating pattern of linear mountain ranges and valleys of the Basin and Range province.
		Although there are other types of faults in the Basin and Range province, the extension and crustal stretching that have shaped the present landscape produce mostly normal faults.
		As the rocky ranges rise, they are immediately subject to weathering and erosion.

		Their range extends from the mountainous areas in the southern Yukon and Labrador Provinces southward to central California and Wyoming, the Great Lakes and Appalachian regions, and New England.
		Despite extensive surveys conducted in forested regions of Oregon, records dating from 1954 to 2001 show that the remaining populations of fishers are restricted to two separate and genetically isolated populations in southwestern Oregon; one in the northern Siskiyou Mountains and one in the southern Cascade Range.
		We encourage state and federal agencies proposing activities within the historic range of the fisher to give consideration to the fisher during the environmental planning process, especially activities which alter or destroy mature and old growth forests.

	Rocky Mountain System
		The Rocky Mountains took shape during a period of intense plate tectonic activity that formed much of the rugged landscape of the western United States.
		The last mountain building event, the Laramide orogeny, (about 70-40 million years ago) the last of the three episodes, is responsible for raising the Rocky Mountains.
		Normally, mountain building is focused between 200 to 400 miles inland from a subduction zone boundary, yet the Rockies are hundreds of miles farther inland.

	American Mountain Goat Hunting
		The mountain goat's long wool is shed in spring and summer, leaving it patchy and dirty-looking until the shorter summer coat is fully exposed.
		Range: High mountain ranges from southeastern Alaska through British Columbia to Washington and the Rockies of Montana and Idaho, plus limited populations in the Yukon and North West Territory and introduced populations on Alaskan islands as well as Oregon, Montana, South Dakota, and Colorado; August-November (the later in the season, the longer the coat).
		The mountains themselves tend to be composed of rugged metamorphic or igneous rocks that provide better footing than softer sedimentary rocks.
