Last year, Bark began wetland habitat surveys in Mount Hood National Forest with the long-term goal of restoring these ecosystems and increasing resiliency to climate change. These surveys will help us to identify and map important components of existing wetlands, which is needed before any restoration activities occur.
This two-part training is intended for people who are interested in becoming actively engaged Bark’s wetland mapping fieldwork. Register for the first part of this training, Wetland Mapping 101, here. These trainings require no previous experience, but we encourage participants to attend Bark's beaver habitat survey training on May 15th. In this two-part training, we will include an overview of Bark’s Wetland Restoration Project and an introduction to wetland ecology, classification, and identification in the field. Those who take this training will be equipped with the skills to help Bark with our efforts to identify and restore wetland habitats in Mt. Hood National Forest.
Please note: This in-person outing will follow COVID-19 protocols. Space is limited and pre-registration is required. Driving directions will be sent to registrants before the event. There will not be carpooling and we ask that you only travel with people who are in your contact bubble. Participants will be required to wear face coverings and maintain physical distance from others outside their contact bubble.
This event is part of Bark's free Rad◦i◦cle Training Program, which empowers individuals to learn valuable skills in forest ecology, public lands advocacy, and community organizing.
