Meghan Bums, Sloane Gray, Cat Mclntyre and Karen New-Ion of MTNHP all worked on mapping and quality control. Erika Colaiacomo of MTNHP helped with data analysis. David Stagliano provided input on stream and river classifications. All photos were taken by MTNHP staff unless otherwise noted.

Finally, thanks are due to Sue Crispin, MTNHP director, for her editorial review , and to Cobum Currier of MTNHP for his work formatting and editing the final version. Any errors that remain are mine alone.
