post-fire fuel modifications and fire-in-progress intensity controls. (II 

 3A.B.II6) 



5. Where Big Tree specimens or groups are present, a 36O sphere of 

 visual influence can focus attention upon all of the significant associates 

 of the sequoia - mixed conifer forest type. Special fuel modifications and 

 bum controls can be concentrated within such spheres. {II 6,11 3A(2)) 



6. Make use of the concept of perceptual opportunities as a means of 

 extending landscape management considerations to the continuum of the 

 National Park landscape, going beyond the limits of Special Management 

 Areas (SMA's). (II 2A, III 1A,B,C,D) 



7. The perceptual opportunities concept involves making landscape 

 inventories to identify examples/samples of landscape resources and station 

 points. SMA's represent logical trial areas for experiment with the 

 perceptual opportunities concept. (Ill 1,2) 



8. Within Special Management Areas where proposeds for historic forest & 

 landscape restorations have been recommended by National Park management, 

 it appears that historic perceptions (I 1,2,3) and the recommendations of 

 the Leopold Report can best be satisfied by even-handed response to the 

 diversity found in the contemporary landscape. There is no single model 

 for historic landscape restoration. (II 6) 



9. Add a landscape architect to the planning and management staff of 

 Sequoia - Kings Canyon N.P. The short-term, casual consultant landscape 

 architect cannot provide the continuing professional insight of a full time 

 staff member. (II 2B)
