Module 6 part 2

 In this lab I made a least cost corridor for black bears in Coronado National Forest. For my analysis I made a modelbuilder model. I realized i did not need to change my elevation to a slope. The elevation DEM is already in meters according to its metadata so no transformation was needed before running it through the reclassify tool. Once using the weighted overlay tool i used the cost distance tool twice using both Coronado polygons as sources. To create my corridor i used the same calculations we used in the last scenario. For my final layout i combined the first 2 classes to create one class to represent to corridor.

My final map ending with this corridor:
