Forest Resilience on Bald Mountain | Boise News
Description
When wildfires loomed over Ketchum, a bold forest restoration effort took root — the Bald Mountain Stewardship Project. Teaming up with tribes, resorts, and federal agencies, they’ve treated 176 acres this year, cleared dead trees, planted 55,000 drought-resistant saplings, and unlocked 430 new ski runs. But it’s not just about recreation — every log removed fuels the Wood for Life program, delivering firewood to 225 tribal homes and saving thousands in heating costs. This isn’t just cleanup; it’s a long-term strategy to build a resilient, diverse forest that protects water, wildlife, and community.
