By Southwest Fire Science Consortium

Date and time

Location

San Carlos Apache Reservation

Description

Join us for a full day field trip to visit various fires managed through partnership between the San Carlos Apache (SCA) Tribe and the BIA San Carlos Agency. Over the last several years, they have built a mosaic of fire by allowing fire to retake its natural role across the Nantac Rim. Recent fires on the SCA include the Skunk, Basin, and Sawmill Fires.

Lunches will be available for order/purchase at a cost of $12 from the Apache Gold Casino. Please plan to pay the Apache Gold Casino directly the morning of the field trip if you order lunch when you register.

TRAVEL GRANTS- Due to federal funding restrictions, travel grants of up to $480 each will be available for any non-federal staff or USFS staff. Please submit completed application for consideration by August 19th to swfireconsortium@gmail.com.

If you have questions, contact Barb Satink Wolfson: barbara.wolfson@nau.edu.
