Fuelbed Pathways

 Fuelbed management pathways have been constructed for three applications, including Okanogan-Wenatchee National Forest, central Oregon, and Tahoe.  
In each case, fuelbeds were created to represent major forest types, age classes, and disturbance and forest management scenarios for each regional dataset.

Okanogan Wenatchee National Forest 240 Okanogan-Wenatchee National Forest is located in north-central Washington State.  The majority of fuelbeds represent dry forest types including ponderosa pine and Douglas-fir.
Central Oregon 157 Fuelbeds mostly represent dry forest types in and around Deschutes National Forest.
