Fire on the Rocks! Hike

May 7, 2016 @ 9:00 am - 1:00 pm

Free

Join Lomakatsi Restoration Project Field Ecologist Lyndia Hammer and BLM Fire Ecologist Jena Volpe to explore a remarkable diversity of vegetation types and their relationship with fire. The Klamath Region has a long history with fire, which has been vital to wildlife, plants and people of the area. Table Rock offers a unique opportunity to investigate a variety of vegetation types of various structure and composition found around the Rogue valley. See examples of recent restoration work in shrublands, oak savannas, woodlands and a mixed conifer hardwood forest and learn about how this work might influence future fire relationships.

Hikes are FREE but reservations are required.  To sign up online: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/fire-on-the-rocks-registration-22177196592

For more information, call the Bureau of Land Management at 541.618.2200, M-F 7:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.

Hikes are three to five miles roundtrip along a moderate-grade trail and generally last three to five hours. Participants should dress for the weather, bring plenty of drinking water (no water source is available on site) and a lunch or snacks. Restrooms are available at both trail heads. To help protect this special place, dogs, mountain bikes and OHVs are NOT allowed on the trail.
