*Due to unforeseen circumstances this event had to be postponed, a new date will be determined in the near future.*

Community Tour: Upper Applegate Watershed Restoration Project


Join the US Forest Service and Rogue Forest Partners for a field trip to the Upper Applegate Watershed Restoration Project, where ecological restoration thinning is underway on the Rogue River-Siskiyou National Forest to improve forest health and reduce wildfire risk. Learn about this collaborative effort and view the helicopter that is moving thinned trees to a landing area, where they will be transported to a local mill. We also plan to visit an area where thinning has been completed and discuss how this work benefits the ecosystem and creates better opportunities for wildland fire response.

Friday, January 24, from 10am-1:30pm*, Applegate Valley, OR

*Date is weather dependent. RSVP required via Eventbrite by January 22: bit.ly/UAWtour
