Phase 2 of the Monroe Mountain project will involve improving aspen ecosystems on the Monroe Mountain by mechanically thinning conifer within 600-800 acres of aspen stands, prescribed fire within approximately 1,700 acres of aspen/mixed conifer stands, pile burning of phase I activity fuels, 500 acres of seeding, boreal toad monitoring, and layout/marking/surveys within approximately 900 acres of mixed conifer/spruce fir stands in preparation for future commercial mechanical thinning.
