Sheep Grazing in National Forest Wilderness
The Bridger Wilderness of Bridger-Teton National Forest takes up most of the west slope of the Wind River Mountains in western Wyoming. Within the wilderness boundary lies the tallest of Wyoming's mountains, Gannett Peak; the Green River, a major tributary of the Colorado, begins here. But Bridger Wilderness is more than big mountains and important headwaters; it is a battleground for old adversaries who have struggled to direct the use of Americ…
Geography and History in the Solukhumbu Landscape, Nepal
Geography and the flow of history have served to separate the Sherpa populations ofJunbesi Khola and the Bhote Kosi valley for close to fifteen generations, giving rise to a group allied by language, livelihood, and long-term bonds of marriage and trade, yet distinguished by an array of differences explicit in the cultural landscape of each place. This example of internal variability within a group that calls itself by a single name illuminates t…
Crisis and conservation in Sagarmatha national park, Nepal
A widely held perception of acute environmental crisis in Khumbu, Nepal, led Western‐trained resource managers to join His Majesty's Government in the planning, establishment, and ongoing management of Sagarmatha National Park. An underlying sense of urgency led the park's planners to the hasty imposition of imported conservation ideology and techniques. Park planning and management was based on Western models and predicated on an apparently erro…
Range Conservation and Sherpa Livestock Management in Khumbu, Nepal
Traditional subsistence practices of the Sherpa formerly included activities that functioned as de facto conservation strategies. Demands by people and livestock on such wildland resources as range and forest were mitigated by these practices, which prevented environmental destruction and permitted centuries of occupation and use of a fragile high-altitude area of inherently low productivity, high variability, and risk. Recent transformations of …
