Project Background

In the summer of 2025, County Park staff, along with the San Juan Islands Conservation District’s Youth Conservation Corps, worked together to collect woody debris from the forest floor for brush piles. This burn will help with fuel reduction as well as provide a training opportunity for San Juan County Fire District 4.
