WOLVERINE
Our wolverine survey areas this season were distributed throughout the North and South Cascades, both east and
west of the Cascade Crest (Figure 5).
Figure 5: All wolverine installations for 2016 spanned between the Gifford Pinchot National Forest in the southwest to
Mount Baker Snoqualmie National Forest in the north.
Two of our eight survey areas dedicated to wolverine monitoring, Chiwaukum and Union Gap, were active all year
in 2016 and had a total of 11 distinct installations (Table 7). Numerous wolverine survey areas were maintained
over the winter from 2016-17 season, including Chiwawa, Chiwaukum, Union Gap, Lookout Mountain, and a new
Installation as of January, 2017 at Kendall Peak, which will be included in the 2017 results and report.
