We have committed $100,000 and will treat (slash and pile) up to 1,000 acres of Juniper this fall/winter/spring!

Work will include pounding in metal t-posts, rolling out three strands of smooth wire, clipping the wire at the appropriate height, digging post holes, installing H-braces or rock jacks, and installing a powder river gate. Additionally, we will be removing ¼ – ½ mile of derelict fence that could entangle wildlife.

Long sleeve clothing, pants and hiking boots are recommended.

BLM personnel will be available with all the needed equipment.

Work gloves, hearing protection and a “MDF Swag Bag” will be provided to each volunteer.

Dispersed camping at the site (no facilities) or reservations can be made at Prineville Res. State Park.
