SUMMARY:Understanding and Navigating the U.S. Forest Service
DESCRIPTION:The work of the U.S. Forest Service includes everything from public lands management to expansion of urban tree cover to conservation education. This session will take a deeper dive into the agency’s structure and scope\, the policy and financial drivers of its activities\, and bigger changes and opportunities relevant to partnerships that have been spurred by the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law and Inflation Reduction Act. We’ll also have lots of time for participant questions! \nRegister: https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_mh_GF4w_Q8qiguU-EI-8Cw#/registration \nAudience: While these webinars are designed for people who may not have engaged with the Forest Service or may be newer to working with the agency\, we welcome any and all attendees. We imagine these sessions will have useful nuggets for just about anyone! \nThis series is hosted by the Watershed Research and Training Center\, with support from Coalitions and Collaboratives. We are part of a group of nonprofits partnering with the U.S. Forest Service on a new Community Navigator initiative. The initiative aims to connect communities with funding and partnership opportunities for climate and wildfire resilience.

SUMMARY:Mann Gulch\, Norman Maclean\, and Young Men and Fire: Why We Are Still Talking About Them Today" with Stephen Pyne
DESCRIPTION:On August 5\, 1949\, a fire was spotted at Mann Gulch\, near Helena\, Montana. The U.S. Forest Service dispatched a team of 15 smokejumpers\, who were met by a fire guard from a nearby campground. When the fire blew up\, thirteen firefighters were killed\, three escaped. While the Forest Service studied what happened and revised its training and safety measures\, few outside the agency remembered the tragedy. That is not until Norman Maclean published a meditation on it\, Young Men and Fire\, did the event connect with national and cultural interests—and continues to thirty years later. \nJoin fire historian Stephen Pyne and host Jamie Lewis as they explore the fire on its 75th anniversary and how Maclean’s book affected the American fire community. Stephen Pyne is a fire historian\, emeritus professor at Arizona State University\, and the author of The Northern Rockies: A Fire Survey and most recently Five Suns: A Fire History of Mexico. Jamie has written about the fire for the FHS blog and served as an advisor on a documentary film about it. \nRegister: https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_h8yxoUkqTeGy9eaQUw7iUw#/registration

SUMMARY:Be Smoke Savvy: Training Guide of Best Management Practices for Prescribed Fire Smoke
DESCRIPTION:Prescribed fire is one of the most important tools that land managers can use to promote healthy ecosystems and build safer\, more resilient communities. A key component of safely conducting these fires is the effective management of the smoke they produce. \nTo better equip the fire community\, Tall Timbers is pleased to announce the launch of a new online smoke management training course\, “Be Smoke Savvy: Training Guide of Best Management Practices for Prescribed Fire Smoke.” \nDeveloped by the Private Lands Fire Initiative Department with constructive input by partners\, this two-hour online course will cover essential topics\, including the importance of smoke management\, various tactics and strategies\, the appropriate use of smoke management tools\, and a review of legal standards related to smoke management. \nThe course will be available from Monday\, September 16th\, through September 25th. It is free of charge and provides two Category 1 Continuing Education Credits. \nTo register for the course within the Timbers Fire Learning Portal\, please click here: https://rxfirelearningportal.unhosting.site/course/view.php?id=35 \nFollow the instructions in order to create an account\, and then you will be able to access to the course. \nAny questions please contact us at:\nzprusak@talltimbers.org\njkrafczynski@talltimbers.org

SUMMARY:Fall Queer Burn Training
DESCRIPTION:The Fall Queer Burn Training is a 4-day immersive campout at fancyland\, a community-minded queer land project on Whilkut land\, situated a half hour inland from Arcata\, CA. \nFancyland will serve as a demonstration site and place where treatments and techniques can be practiced\, observed\, and learned from year after year. This is an opportunity to learn together while working on different aspects of beneficial burning: site preparation\, pre- and post-fire monitoring for cultural and ecological resources\, and\, if weather conditions permit\, live fire training. \nThe focus of this training is working with fire as a tool and partner in overtopped oak woodland management\, with an emphasis on being in right relationship to the land’s ecological and cultural history in order to deepen our connection to place. It is an opportunity to learn about and with fire together with other 2SLGBTQIA+ people. Inspired by WTREX training exchanges centering women fire workers\, there will be opportunities for people marginalized in the fire workforce to build skills and work toward certifications. However\, unlike TREX fire trainings\, you do not need to have a Fire Fighter 2 certification to participate. \nOur overarching goal is to explore what queer fire is and can be\, as a mixed group of Indigenous\, BPOC\, and settler queer-identified people. To do this\, we will supplement hands-on training with opportunities for reflection\, discussion\, creative documentation\, and affinity spaces for Indigenous\, BPOC\, disabled / chronically ill\, youth\, and elder participants. Some questions that will guide these discussions are: \n\nWhat is not queer about mainstream fire work?\nWhat practices increase marginalized people’s access to fire training and land stewardship?\nHow can the intersection of queerness and good fire support our larger commitments to collective liberation?\nWhat can queer knowledge and lived experience contribute to policy and management efforts to promote cultural burning and wildfire resilience?\n\nBoth weekends will feature training\, discussion\, reflection\, and queer good times. If you want to contribute ideas or collaborate in facilitating skillsharing sessions you can sign up using the Discussion and activity co-leader sign up sheet. \nWe will begin reviewing applications on 8/8\, and continue on a rolling basis as space permits until 9/4. We will be reserving spaces for BIPOC participants and balancing experience levels. The registration fee ($50-600 sliding scale) contributes to food costs and honoraria for cultural practitioners\, and will be collected in a follow-up survey beginning 8/12. We have stipends to compensate local tribal members as burn leaders and cultural advisors\, and a travel and scholarship fund to offset costs and increase access. \nApply by August 30: https://surveys.ucanr.edu/survey.cfm?surveynumber=43310 \n  \n*PLEASE NOTE*: We hope to burn\, but may not get to actually light fire. We can only burn during burn “windows” – weather conditions that allow us to burn gently and contain our fire\, and it’s impossible to predict more than 10 days in advance if we will get a good window. We will take advantage of any burn windows to burn the four burn units that we have prepped at fancyland. It’s possible that we could burn all four during the first weekend\, or that we could not be able to burn until the second weekend\, or that the weather won’t cooperate and we won’t be able to burn at all.
