5 PURPOSE: Initiate dialogue and identify strategies for effective landscape conservation by Federal Land Managers Strengthen relationships among Federal Land Managers in the Great Northern Area OUTCOMES: Status of AGO, GNLCC and other Federal landscape programs Brainstorm and identify strategies about how to create a system of connected Federal lands Useful applications for emerging landscape tools and science products available to your staff Recommended priorities for AGO, GNLCC and other landscape initiatives and programs

6 GNLCC Vision: The Great Northern Landscape Conservation Cooperative is committed to land, water, and wildlife conservation across the landscape through inter organizational, collaborative science and management. GNLCC Goal: Build resource resilience and inform sustainable resource management in the face of landscape stressors Climate Change Energy Development Invasive Species Columbia Basin Upper Columbia River, tributaries and river valley ecology Rocky Mountain Mountain forests, alpine and high relief ecotypes Sage Steppe Arid lands, highelevation prairies and deserts
