Skyline Mechanics Study

Purpose

Summer 1985: We will be conducting static tests on the skyline corridor. Measuring skyline and guyline loadings, and tailtree deflections. Summer 1986: Dynamic tests will be conducted on the skyline corridor.

Tailtree Mechanics

Purpose

We will be rigging a short (<400'] skyline corridor and "logging" less than the equivalent of 20 trees (hardwoods mostly) to measure the dynamic behavior of the tailtree.

Bimechanics of jumping in the Pacific Jumping Mouse

Purpose

Bimechanics of jumping in the Pacific Jumping Mouse (Zapas Trinotatus) will be studied by capturing these mice in small Sherman traps near the base of the Extendo Trail in the Oak Creek area. Six animals will be collected. The mice will be housed in Cordl
