The Intermountain Station, headquarted in Ogden, 

 Utah, is one of eight regional experiment stations charged 

 with providing scientific knowledge to help resource 

 managers meet human needs and protect forest and range 

 ecosystems. 



The Intermountain Station includes the States of 

 Montana, Idaho, Utah, Nevada, and western Wyoming. 

 About 231 million acres, or 85 percent, of the land area in 

 the Station territory are classified as forest and rangeland. 

 These lands include grasslands, deserts, shrublands, alpine 

 areas, and well-stocked forests. They supply fiber for 

 forest industries; minerals for energy and industrial 

 development; and water for domestic and industrial con- 

 sumption. They also provide recreation opportunities for 

 millions of visitors each year. 



Field programs and research work units of the Station 

 are maintained in: 



Boise, Idaho 



Bozeman, Montana (in cooperation with 

 Montana State University) 



Logan, Utah (in cooperation with Utah State 

 University) 



Missoula, Montana (in cooperation with the
