Groundtruthing Field Day (SPOOKY EDITION)
Join Bark as we survey a very scary timber project on Mt Hood called the South Wasco Ecosystem Resiliency project! We’ll get you home before you Halloween party!
Bark monitors every timber sale (logging project) proposed on Mt. Hood and uses groundtruthing to document the forest conditions within the proposed project areas. This on the ground data is vital as we engage in the decision-making process and work to influence projects on Mt Hood.
We will be navigating on foot, off trail, through the forest and across uneven terrain. For more information about what to pack, see here: www.bark-out.org/field-day-packing-list/
Meet at Gateway/NE 99th Ave. at 9 am. Make sure to meet us inside near the south entrance to the parking garage! From there we will coordinate carpooling to our survey site/secondary location. The exact survey area will be sent to you as we get closer to the date, but generally our field survey locations are 1 – 2 hours from Portland. We will aim to be finished and back to the park n ride by no later than 6pm.
