Forest Restoration Program
Restore Native Vegetation and Forest Communities
Aspen planting has been identified as a key long term restoration activity within the Angora Fire area. This project is designed to maintain or restore riparian hardwood and understory vegetation in burned areas along riparian corridors and meadow edges, and reduce conifer encroachment. Aspen planting would increase the quantity and distribution of aspen stands within the burned area and maintain or create wildlife habitat for the diverse range of species that utilize aspen for nesting, cover, or foraging.
