Another great week working at Duck Creek Basin and camping at Timber Creek Campground in the Humboldt-Toiyobe National Forest. Out Pinyon-Juniper reduction project is helping to restore sagebrush habitat and also creates a fire break. Our project sponsor is the Eastern Nevada Landscape Coalition.

| Lunch tree on our last day. Trees that had crowned were left standing. |

| Lots of large anthills like this one. So far I haven't been bitten, but they often form around the trunks of the trees we are cutting |
