Groundtruthing Training

Let’s head back up to the Larch Mountain area for some forest exploration and groundtruthing training! Have you been wanting to learn more about Bark’s groundtruthing program? This will be an excellent chance to learn some new skills and prepare yourself for field days on Mt Hood. No experience necessary!
You will get the opportunity to learn why we survey, what we survey for, and how we use the data to alter/stop timber projects and hold the Forest Service accountable. We will view examples of different kinds of forest stands we encounter during surveys and practice using tools for data gathering. By the end, you’ll be one step closer to becoming a groundtruthing pro!
Meet at the Bark office at 9 am, we’ll depart in carpool/caravan at 9:30am and return by 3 pm.
Questions or concerns? Reach out to Jordan (jordan@bark-out.org) and/or Mia (miatpisano@gmail.com).
Hope to see you there!
