Join GARNA for a special Ski with a Naturalist that focuses on the recent fuels mitigation work visible across the valley from Monarch Mountain. Arkansas River Watershed Collaborative Lead Forester Andy Lerch will discuss the spruce beetle that has caused widespread tree mortality and the innovative forestry work that ARWC and the US Forest Service are using to address this problem. Learn about how this collaborative work aims to reduce large scale wildfire in our community and protect our water resources.

The tour departs at 11:00 am near Ski Patrol headquarters. Guests of all ages and abilities are welcome. The tour is free, follows all beginner runs and lasts for about 45 minutes to an hour.

The Arkansas River Watershed Collaborative is a Salida based non-profit that serves the Arkansas River Basin communities by addressing locally-identified watershed issues for economic, ecological & social benefit. Learn more about what they do at www.arkcollaborative.org.
Big thank you to Hyside Whitewater Inflatables for their support of the Ski naturalist program!
