Sparky Danger Tree Removal Project

Bend/ Fort Rock Ranger District

Deschutes National Forest

Deschutes County, Oregon

The Bend-Fort Rock Ranger District is proposing to remove danger trees from approximately 1,520 acres along the Cascade Lakes Highway from just east of the Meissner Sno-park west to Elk and Hosmer Lakes. Falling of identified danger trees would occur using chain saws or mechanized harvesters. Where removal is appropriate and feasible, felled trees would be removed using mechanized equipment, pickup or flatbed truck, off-highway vehicles (OHVs), or by hand or non-motorized equipment such as wheelbarrows. Residual slash materials would be utilized, lopped and scattered, or piled and some or all of the piles burned.
