The National Park Service (NPS) approved the use of Calcium Chloride as a dust suppressant on the Park road after four years of research. A formal monitoring program to track the spatial and temporal movement of CaCl2 concentrations along the Park road began in 2005. Fifteen terrestrial sites and fourteen water body locations were selected to monitor the movement of chloride from the roadbed into roadside soils and surface waters. Initial results showed wide variability in chloride concentrations in soil adjacent to the roadbed, while waterbodies generally had low concentrations (ABR 2006). This report presents 2007 results for the dust palliative chloride monitoring program.During the summer of 2007, 35 applications...

The Final Determination for the Cantwell Traditional Use Area (TUA) allows subsistence users to operate off-road vehicles (ORV) within the Cantwell TUA for subsistence hunting purposes. Following this decision, Denali National Park and Preserve (DNP&P) established an ORV monitoring program to determine annual ORV use levels, track damage to resources and monitor the condition of open trails and routes with the Traditional Use Area. Of particular interest were identifying any severe impacts affecting trail sustainability or incursions beyond open established trails, as well as the amount of use on the open trails. We also seek to monitor the recovery of areas previously disturbed by ORVs upon closure to determine...
