SUMMARY:Virtual Presentation: "Burnt: A tale of three fires"
DESCRIPTION:Monday\, January 29\n11am-12pm\nClick here to join the Zoom meeting \nJoin us for a presentation by Jacob Saul Heydorn Gorski\, Master in Landscape Architecture\, Amsterdam Academy of Architecture\, about his project that “focuses on the mountain town of Red Feather Lakes in the American state of Colorado to question dominant narratives we have of wildfire and offer a new path forward.” \nBurnt: a tale of three fires investigates how embracing wildfire can restore resiliency and create new cultural connections between a landscape and its inhabitants. It draws from the designer’s childhood fascination of landscape and fire and takes inspiration from a Dutch attitude towards another natural threat: water. \nEcosystems like Colorado’s Front Range mountains are disturbance-driven. The Front Range is built to burn. Forests here have adapted to the kinds of fire that burn in them. Native plant and animal species developed strategies that allowed them to resist\, be resilient to\, or even depend upon fire. The lodgepole pine\, for instance\, cannot reseed without the heat of heavy fire. \nHistorically\, these fires led to a rich landscape mosaic. In the US\, however\, a century of fear- driven policy and land-use has removed fire from these forests. The resulting landscape is unhealthy\, less resilient\, and less diverse than before. When it burns\, it burns hotter\, longer\, and more frequently than it can naturally absorb. The lasting effects and damage of these fires can extend for years. \nDespite the critical role of fire in these ecosystems\, we continue to try to remove fire from the landscape. Since 2016\, Colorado alone has spent more than $2 billion fighting fires. What could it look like if we begin to let fire back into the landscape? In the Netherlands\, flooding\, long seen as a threat\, has increasingly been used as an opportunity to create new experiences and habitats. Can we do the same for fire? To explore this question\, the project focuses on the area around Red Feather Lakes\, a mountain town in the Front Range. This town is nestled on the border of different forests with different fires. Part of the forest burnt in a 2020 wildfire. The town is highly vulnerable to fire yet highly dependent on the forests for recreation and water. The different pressures of fire come together on this site. \nThe project takes inspiration from local ecology to develop three new strategies for wildfire: defensive\, resilient\, and resistant. Each strategy kickstarts a process based on community involvement and site-derived materials to let fire tell a different story about the landscape. In the first site\, fire breaks shape the way a forest burns and allow recreants to experience the ‘terrible sublime’ of the postfire landscape. In the second site\, a stream is transformed into a naturally-managed defensive buffer that mitigates the effects of post-fire flooding. In the last site\, a community comes together to restore a severely burnt forest. Together\, these three strategies not only reshape and restore the ecosystem but also use fire as a means to create new landscape experiences and community exchange. While site-specific\, the interventions here offer a model for other landscapes in the American West for a possible future with fire. \nWe have\, to quote Dante\, found ourselves “within a forest dark\, for the straightforward pathway had been lost.” This project offers a new path ahead\, one lit by the light of fire. \nJacob Saul Heydorn Gorski\n2022

SUMMARY:PODs Revision & Expansion Virtual Workshop
DESCRIPTION:We are excited to announce the upcoming Arapaho and Roosevelt National Forest (ARP) Potential Operational Delineation\, or POD Line Revision and Expansion Workshop! This process is a collaborative effort between the ARP and the Northern Colorado Fireshed Collaborative (NCFC) with the goals of expanding the current POD network to facilitate cross-boundary fire and fuels planning and to revise the current PODs to reflect altered fuel conditions and to capture lessons learned over the past few years of POD utilization. \nThe workshop will be led by the Colorado Forest Restoration Institute and will occur from November 6-9 starting with a kickoff Background Information Session on the 6th followed by geographically focused Mapping Sessions on the 7th\, 8th\, and 9th. The audience for these workshops is primarily agencies and organizations within the NCFC area with fire management responsibilities and knowledge of local fire behavior. \nFor the geographically focused Mapping Sessions\, we’ve sent out invites to the geographically relevant fire response organizations—those with intimate knowledge of the landscape\, roads and potential control lines\, and how fire interacts with those features. Didn’t receive an invite? All are welcome to the Background Information Session on Nov. 6 from 1-3pm! \nQuestions? Please contact Ch’aska Huayhuaca at Chaska.Huayhuaca-Frye@colostate.edu \n  \nBackground Information Session – November 6\, 1:00-3:00pm\nWhere: Virtual only\, via Teams (Join Teams Here) \nTarget Audience: Fire managers\, interagency partners\, line officers/Agency Administrators\, and any NCFC partners interested in learning more about PODs and how they are developed. \nPotential Operational Delineations\, or PODs\, are a spatial planning framework in which fire responders\, resource managers\, and other cross-jurisdictional partners bring their local knowledge to a process to identify spatial units or containers defined by potential control features\, such as roads and ridgetops. Each POD may be summarized with relevant forest conditions\, values at risk\, and fire potential and used to pre-plan for wildfire across jurisdictions and at a landscape scale using a risk management approach. PODs are a central component of the NCFC’s emerging landscape spatial strategy\, providing a basic building block of fuels treatment and vegetation management planning as we work to prepare landscapes to receive and recovery from inevitable wildfire. Partners of the NCFC have used the existing PODs network developed by the ARP to inform planning on numerous projects with multiple objectives. However\, our PODs network was developed before the 2020 wildfire season and only covers the ARP’s jurisdiction. To be truly useful for cross-boundary planning\, the network must be updated\, refined\, and extended off these federal lands. This series of workshops will allow us to collaboratively generate the spatial data we need to inform future all-lands planning before\, during\, and after wildland fire. \nThis introductory presentation will be approximately 1 ½ hours in length with Q&A to follow. The presentation will be fully remote via Teams and recorded. We look forward to your attendance and participation. \nThe links provided below are a relatively comprehensive look at the who\, what\, where and why of PODs:\n• Rocky Mountain Research Station’s PODs overview\n• The Path to Strategic Wildland Fire Management Planning

SUMMARY:Webinar: NoCo Fireshed Risk Assessment for Practitioners
DESCRIPTION:On Feb 8\, 9-11am\, the Colorado Forest Restoration Institute (CFRI) will hold a webinar on the recently completed Northern Colorado Fireshed Wildfire Risk Assessment in coordination with the Coalition for the Poudre River Watershed and the Northern Colorado Fireshed Collaborative. This risk assessment was developed by CFRI in collaboration with dozens of stakeholder groups spanning the Northern Front Range. The primary objectives of the risk assessment were to support cross-boundary wildfire risk management planning\, focus area identification\, grant development\, and treatment outcomes monitoring. In this webinar\, we hope to aid potential user groups in applying the risk assessment to their own program of work and to spur enhanced cross-boundary collaboration. \nSpecifically\, this webinar aims to: 1) Provide a brief overview of the risk assessment model and the collaborative process used to identify values and resources at risk\, rank landscape priorities\, and estimate resource responses to wildfire; 2) Review the numerous data outputs of the wildfire risk model so that stakeholders are comfortable working with the products in their own quantitative analyses; 3) Present case studies and specific suggestions for data uses; 4) Initiate a collaborative discussion to foster coordinated planning\, data sharing\, and lessons learned \nREGISTER HERE >>\nThe technical report is available on the CFRI website publications tab or through this direct link: \nhttps://cfri.colostate.edu/wp-content/uploads/sites/22/2022/10/Rhea_et_al_2022_NorthernColoradoFireshedWildfireRiskAssessment_CFRI_2221.pdf \nThe data can be downloaded here: \nhttps://cfri.box.com/s/5obu0g5d6bdhgyucbbuby4ob74jp8hdx \nResults can be viewed in AGOL here: \nhttps://csurams.maps.arcgis.com/apps/mapviewer/index.html?webmap=bbf2d1c2be0546d5922dfa0cbe97c9b3

SUMMARY:Webinar: Residents’ Perspectives on Colorado’s 2020 Cameron Peak Fire
DESCRIPTION:The 2020 Cameron Peak Fire burned more than 200\,000 acres of public and private land in northern Colorado making it the largest fire recorded in Colorado’s history. Extreme fire behavior driven by dense and dry fuels\, steep terrain\, and weather and climatic factors greatly affected the range of potential management strategies. Many different communities were affected by the fire from smoke\, repeated and long-term evacuations\, emotional distress\, and property impacts. Social science researchers at Colorado State University\, in conjunction with the USDA Rocky Mountain Research Station\, interviewed more than 50 landowners and residents in communities directly impacted by the Cameron Peak Fire to understand and share their experiences and perspectives. Join this webinar to learn about people’s attitudes on the communication and fire management strategies\, their perceptions of post-fire landscape recovery and forest health\, and their support for future forest and fire management. \nFind more information about this research on the project website \nPresenter Information: \nChad Kooistra is the Wildfire Management Research Program Lead with the Public Lands Policy Group at Colorado State University in Fort Collins\, Colorado. \nSarah McCaffrey is a Research Social Scientist with the USDA Rocky Mountain Research Station in Fort Collins\, Colorado. \nTo register visit: https://bit.ly/JAN19CPF
