Approach
Maintain current habitat, restore historical structure, and increase mosaic structure (including snags).
Tactics
- Conduct thinning and prescribed fire treatments; use thinning from below; maintain natural structure with diversity
- density; control ladder fuels.
- Manage grazing to discourage overgrazing of native plants and to maintain fine fuels to carry fire.
- Plant adapted ponderosa pine
