In many ways, planning landscapes with restoration goals in mind is like solving a spatial jigsaw puzzle. The choice of which piece to restore first will influence later choices, because the characteristics of remaining pieces assist the decision maker in creating an emerging picture that is both recognizable and desired. All we ask of jigsaw puzzles is that they entertain and challenge us. People ask a great deal more from their landscapes. Fulfilling people's demand for food, water, fiber, recreation, and shelter often leads to significant changes on the land, changes that leave legacies that, in turn, affect future choices.
