This document details the Strathcona Elk Winter Range Enhancement Project, a multi-year initiative in British Columbia focused on improving habitat for Roosevelt elk. The project's main goals were to increase forage production, create better cover, and ultimately support a healthier elk population through various habitat enhancement trials, including seeding, pruning, and clearing. The report summarizes the methodology, results, and recommendations from the 2004 efforts, highlighting observations on forage growth, browse availability, and elk usage patterns, alongside financial expenditures and the project's long-term objectives for elk conservation within the Strathcona Provincial Park and surrounding valleys.
