dc.description.abstractIn January 2011, Colorado State University and the Colorado Natural Heritage Program (CNHP) contracted with the White River National Forest (WRNF) to complete wetland mapping and fen field surveys within the White River National Forest (WRNF). Since, 2008, CNHP has been working with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service's National Wetland Inventory (NWI) Program and numerous funding partners to create a comprehensive digital map of wetlands for the state of Colorado by 2015. The digitizing and mapping of the wetlands within the WRNF is integral to CNHP's goal to determine the extent and location of wetlands across the state. In addition to the digitizing of the 124 NWI maps, a subset of mapped wetlands consisting of 39 (original number was 25) fens were field surveyed during 2011. The data collected from this project will be added to the CNHP database of critical biological resources, including unique wetlands such as fens. This project will continue to build upon CNHP's past wetland survey and assessment projects.
