The 10th Annual Restoring the West Conference will be held at the Eccles Conference Center in Logan, Utah. Humans have used fire to manage forest vegetation for a long time. However, relatively recent changes in fire regimes have presented challenges for people tasked with managing these dynamic ecological systems. Climate change, drought, increasing fuel loads and disease-stricken trees have many researchers considering the role of fire as a tool for restoration. This conference will bring together leading experts, land managers and scientists for a two-day discussion on this timely topic. You don't want to miss this conference.  

This conference is organized and sponsored by Utah State University (Cooperative Extension, Wildland Resources and Watershed Sciences Departments, College of Natural Resources, and Ecology Center), USDA Forest Service - State and Private Forestry, and the Western Aspen Alliance.
