The Bark Beetle Outbreaka USDA Forest Service report"During the last part of the 20th century, widespread treatments in lodgepole pine stands that would have created age class diversity, enhanced the vigor of remaining trees, and improved stand resiliency to drought or insect attack—such as timber harvest and thinning—lacked public acceptance. Proposals for such practices were routinely appealed and litigated, constraining the ability of the Forest Service to manage what had become large expanses of even-aged stands susceptible to a bark beetle outbreak." _____________________________________________ Forests in TransitionPlease join us Tuesday, January 10th from 11 am to 12:30 pm (MST) for a webinar on future vegetation conditions following the mountain pine beetle outbreak. This interactive discussion is part of the Future Forests Webinar Series, which serves to facilitate conversations among scientists and managers about the range of future management challenges and opportunities following the beetle outbreak. When: Tuesday, January 10th, 2012 from 11:00 am - 12:30 pm (MST) Who: Forest Service resource professionals, managers, cooperators, and partners interested in post-outbreak forest recovery -- please circulate this email to anyone who might be interested! How: Register at http://www.fs.fed.us/rmrs/events/registrations/future-forests/. Up to 5 days ahead of the webinar, you will receive an email from Megan Matonis (mmatonis@fs.fed.us) with instructions and a link to attend. ___________________________________________ Outstandinging ServiceWe would like to recommend Timberline for tree spraying.
They protected our border trees this year and we were very happy with their service.
The work was done in a timely fashion, very professional, and with great service and communication.
This company really knows the tree spraying business.
We offer our highest recommendation! Jean and Randy Hediger
