National Public Lands Day: Aspen Enhancement at Reynolds Ranch

Project Date: Sat, September 23, 2023 10:00 am - 2:30 pm
Opportunity Type: One-Time Volunteer Opportunity
Department: Parks & Open Space
Category: Open Space, Environment, and Gardening
Location:

Near Nederland

Program Summary:

In 2008, 40 acres of small patch cuts were implemented in the lodgepole forests south of Nederland to address forest health and fire issues in the area. Over the last 13 years, these areas have seen a flush of new aspen growth as well as abundant lodgepole pine regeneration.

To promote and enhance these aspen stands, volunteers will use loppers and handsaws to remove competing lodgepole pines.
