In March 2011, the Pacific Southwest Region of the US Forest Service released a statement of its Leadership Intent for Ecological Restoration, which laid out the Region’s guiding vision and goals for its stewardship of wildland and forests for the next 15-20 years. The following draft document reflects the Regional leadership’s current thinking on how the Leadership Intent will be implemented. This draft is a beginning point for discussions with employees, partners, tribes, agencies, communities of place and interest and those who care about the future of their National Forests.
The need for ecological restoration has become increasingly important because of the many threats to the Forest’s unique “Rivers to Ridges” landscapes. They include catastrophic wildfire, climate change impacts, drought, insect and disease, and increasing pressures of human population.
The Trinity County Collaborative has teamed up with the Six Rivers on the From Fire-killed to Fuelbreaks project developed by its forestry working group.
Great news for all you hikers out there! The Wooley Creek trail system has undergone some recent maintenance and has been cleared of obstacles all the way to Fowler’s Cabin.
