The objectives of these series of events are to learn from project work to understand how science, monitoring, and adaptive management are impacting our effectiveness to cumulatively impact larger ecological and fire management outcomes.

Forest & Fire Front Range Symposium: come to all three or just one!

Field Trip: September 10 - Northern Front Range (Loveland, CO)
Field Trip: September 26 - Southern Front Range (Woodland Park, CO)
Jam Session: October 21 - Butterfly Pavillion (Westminster, CO)

Field trips may be affected by the outcomes of the current Front Range wildfires, with participant safety and sensitivity to affected partners both taking priority. We appreciate your flexibility.

The field trips are full, please add yourself to the field trip waitlist ticket.

FIELD TRIPS are offered on dates different from the Jam session, PLEASE select the ticket per each event you plan to attend.

Join the learning and come JAM on the data with us!

The field trips are focused on adaptive management learning objectives to discuss realities of forest and fire management opportunities, with monitoring data to support how we can better achieve project goals and objectives.

The Jam Session is an opportunity for knowledge exchange to promote adaptive ecosystem management in fire-prone forests along the Front Range. This indoor event will foster peer to peer learning through forest and fire managers, research scientists, and others co-presenting their lessons learned from working together. Through exploring management opportunities and the latest science, the Jam session hopes to inspire adaptive management and learning for all managers and scientists across the Colorado Front Range.
