Heart of the Rockies Initiative has been diligently applying a Landscape Conservation Design process with full stakeholder engagement to articulate a stakeholder defined conservation vision for the High Divide landscape and to develop plans and strategies to achieve that vision. Our progress to-date includes: completion of the socio-economic data from Headwaters Economics, including a spatial build-out analysis of most of the counties in the project area. initiated the process to build cross-boundary habitat models with Idaho Dept. of Fish and Game and Montana Fish Wildlife and Parks that combine broad-scale habitat and connectivity models with high resolution GPS data identification, gathering and processing...

Establishing connections among natural landscapes is the most frequently recommended strategy for adapting management of natural resources in response to climate change. The U.S. Northern Rockies still support a full suite of native wildlife, and survival of these populations depends on connected landscapes. Connected landscapes support current migration and dispersal as well as future shifts in species ranges that will be necessary for species to adapt to our changing climate. Working in partnership with state and federal resource managers and private land trusts, we sought to: 1) understand how future climate change may alter habitat composition of landscapes expected to serve as important connections for wildlife,...

The Heart of the Rockies Initiative focuses its efforts on a region from southern Alberta and British Columbia to western Wyoming - the Central Rockies of North America. Within our working region are three distinct planning regions. The Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem (GYE) is the southernmost area and surrounds Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Parks, including parts of Wyoming, Idaho and Montana. The High Divide straddles the continental divide in Idaho and Montana. The Crown of the Continent caps the northern region, encompassing parts of Idaho, Montana, and British Columbia and Alberta, Canada.
