Rocky Mountain National Park’s Thunder Mountain Fuels Reduction Project

The primary goal of this project is to reduce the fuel load and change fuels arrangement inside the park boundary to reduce the threat of wildland fire to the adjacent communities and municipal water sheds. Work includes felling standing trees, pruning remaining trees, removing ladder fuels, bucking dead and down material, and piling all resulting material on site for future pile burning in deep snow conditions. All this work must be conducted in a manner that protects park visitors, protects rare plants, preserves sensitive wildlife habitat, and minimizes the aesthetic impacts of the work onto the park visitors. The intent is to complete this contract with hand crews using hand carried chainsaws and/or non-motorized tools, off road vehicles are not permitted. Future pile burning will be conducted by Rocky Mountain National Park personnel and is not part of this contract.
