Portions of the Forest were impacted by a tornado in Jackson County, west of Kinkaid Lake. We are proposing to salvage about 250 acres of wind damaged timber. Reforestation and timber stand improvement are also proposed.
Location
Located about 4 miles southwest of Ava, the impacted area is west of State Highway 151, south of Little Kinkaid Road, and north of Suchman Road.
