Of note at one of the Bumping Lake installations was a high concentration of elk in one area, the camera was
moved upon revisit to capture a more diverse representation of species in the area (Table 4).
GENERAL WILDLIFE ALONG THE INTERSTATE 90 CORRIDOR
The I-90 corridor for this project is defined as the 15-mile stretch along I-90 between Hyak, at milepost 54, and
Easton, at milepost 70 (Figure 4). The I-90 survey areas in 2016 monitored previously-established and novel
locations within this 15 mile stretch and within close proximity to the freeway. The three survey areas, each
consisting of two camera installations, totaled ten discreet locations being monitored (Table 5). These installations
are established in the I-90 corridor to detect general wildlife movement and presence in relation to the interstate.
