Abstract
Friends of the Metolius proposed that the Forest Service analyze and implement this collaborative project as a demonstration of forest management methods, with the interest of educating the public about the need for, and outcomes of similar proposed management throughout ponderosa pine and mixed conifer habitat in the Metolius Basin. Includes establishing 8 small plots from 5 to 11 acres in which different types of vegetation management "treatment" would occur, including small and large tree removal, prescribed burning or mowing, all with the object of moving the forest stands toward sustainable old-growth conditions.
