Uinta National Forest supervisor Clarence S. Thornock introduced the "team" of specialists who had prepared the composite, Ranger Rushton, Dick Benjamin, Noma Malone and Bruce Parry, of the U.S.

Forest Service. Mr. Malone is the environmental architect for the group. He reported an eight percent increase in recreation activities each year. He also reported losing a physical capacity in the canyon of two percent yearly, a ten percent deficit.

Study Included Included in the study were land use, land ownership, the Wasatch Front Master Plan, fire occurrence, fire rate of spread and resistance to control, watershed, range allotment, wildlife, transportation network, cover, slope maps, elevation, exposure, drainage, mineral rights and recreation concepts. Uinta National Forest includes both American Fork and Provo Canyons and a wide surrounding area, bordering Parleys, Cottonwood Canyon and the Alta range. A tri-unit study will include Wasatch State Park, Uinta National Forest and the Wasatch Front, with a wilderness area sought by many for this unit. Land use of the area includes the above mentioned activities and needs, plus grazing, mining, special use purposes, logging and summer home development, water transmission, power transportation and generation and greatly expanded winter use, such as skiing, snowmobile trails, chair lift development and trail head development.
