Decked timber is the result of the fire suppression activities. Removal is needed to complete restoration of fire suppression acticity, remove fuel concentrations, remove potential insect sources, and provide economic benefits to local communities.
Location
The decks are located along the FS 5106 Road near Lynx Creek, the FS 519 Road located near Molly Creek, and the FS 5111 and FS 5103 Road in the Mud Creek drainage.
