Excerpt from Cost, Performance, and Esthetic Impacts of an Experimental Forest Road in Montana Forest managers face a paradoxical challenge of utilizing forest resources (primar ily timber) without damaging or destroying other assets of the forest. Also, with a decreasing land base available for timber growing, more intensive forestry must be practiced in the future. These facts, along the trend toward logging steeper terrain and more fragile soils, increase the potential damage from timber harvesting and road construction. Hence, minimizing the impacts of road construction while still providing for harvesting and traffic needs is essential for continued resource use. In the past few years, more attention has been given to reducing road impacts, even though some of the trade-offs have not been very well defined. In the past, roads were designed primarily to serve the anticipated traffic needs of the access system. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
