Elizabeth Billings
- Type: Person
When even the sharpest female minds were denied ranks above "amateur”, Elizabeth Billings (1871-1944) nonetheless achieved enough to impress a modern-day botanist. Her accomplishments included cultivating various gardens, experimenting in farming, managing the family estate, and cataloging hundreds of plants.
What to Do About Number Two? Insights from Decades of Human Waste Research and Management on Denali
- Type: Article

Backcountry waste management poses unique challenges on glaciers at over 14,000 feet. Mountaineering on Denali has a long history, including decades of human waste buried on the most popular climbing route--Kahiltna Glacier. As much as 88 metric tons of human waste is estimated to have been generated by mountaineers on the West Buttress climbing route since it was first climbed in 1951. What happens to this waste and what are the impacts? Alaska Park Science, 2025
Ranch Foreman's Cabin
- Type: Place

Known as the "Little House," this cabin housed the ranch manager. Like the Bond Cabin, cooking was primarily done outdoors until the Dunigan family remodeled in the 1980s. In both cabins, the additions can be easily recognized because they used vertical board/batten framing instead of horizontal logs. This cabin had continual ranch management use from 1918 up until the early 2000s. It was featured in the show Longmire.

Inclusive Conservation in the Denali Region of Alaska: Scenario planning with local communities
- Type: Article

Public land management requires reflexive engagement, negotiation, and compromise among people who differ in how and why they value nature. The process of balancing visitor and resident interests while sustaining ecosystems is increasingly complicated by global environmental change and the range of relationships that people have with nature. This model of public engagement uses scenario planning throughout the decision-making process. Alaska Park Science, 2025

Motorized access to Yellowstone National Park during the winter season has been historically contentious, with continual concerns regarding potentially affected resources, including air quality. The culmination of the air quality monitoring aimed at understanding the impacts of OSVs in Yellowstone National Park provides an excellent example of how balancing policy and public interests can result in positive environmental impacts.

Waterton-Glacier BioBlitz! A Fun-filled Day of Hands-on-Science
- Type: Article

During the summer of 2017, the CCRLC hosted two BioBlitz events: the Waterton-Glacier Mushroom BioBlitz and the Waterton-Glacier Butterfly BioBlitz. Nearly 150 participants joined in helping resource managers gather data on the diverse array of fungus and butterfly species found in Glacier National Park.

Successful management of wildland fire is a team effort. National Park Service (NPS) staff in Alaska have formed a unique partnership with the Bureau of Land Management Alaska Fire Service (AFS), which has helped to turn challenges into opportunities, and increased operational efficiency in utilization of helicopters for fire suppression. This partnership has benefited not only Alaska, but also the wildland firefighting effort in several western states.
The Link between Human Resources and a Human Connection
- Type: Article
- Type: Article

Estimates of visitor use levels are important for informing park management decisions. The spatial and temporal extent and resolution of visitor use estimates can limit how they can be incorporated into management decisions, research, or paired with ecological data. This article recommends how visitor use monitoring can be approached more systematically and then used in parkwide predictive models of visitor use. NPS Intermountain Park Science, 2025
