Landscapes considered to be scenic include views of mountain ranges and specific peaks, rivers and river valleys, views from mountain peaks or other high-elevation locations, and lakes and reservoirs. Evaluation of these landscapes is discussed in detail in the USDA Forest Service (1995) “Handbook of Scenery Management.” Once reservoirs become established components of the landscape, removal of dams and their reservoirs can also become an aesthetic issue (Smutko 2005).
