National Community Wildfire Preparedness Day Driving Tour at UIEF
University of Idaho - CNR
Attention forest landowners! Saturday, May 2, is National Community Wildfire Preparedness Day. Join us on the University of Idaho Experimental Forest (UIEF) in Princeton for a driving tour to visit a wide range of fuel treatments installed on the UIEF over the last decade to reduce fire hazard on Moscow Mountain and surrounding communities. Treatments will include mastication, commercial harvesting, pruning, grazing and prescribed fire use ranging from one to 10 years old. Learn about options for reducing hazards near your home and see how mastication equipment works firsthand. As temperatures warm up, now is the time to clean up trees that blew down this winter and prepare for fire season!
We'll discuss available funding opportunities from IDL/USFS and other sources to help reduce fire hazard in your neighborhoods through active forest management.
The tour will start at West Hatter Parking on the UIEF West Hatter Unit and will last approximately 3 hours. Please RSVP to cnr-uief@uidaho.edu if interested in…
