Project Overview
The Tarryall Webber Park Project is a forest restoration and fuels reduction effort in Colorado’s Front Range. Covering approximately 1,100 acres in Pike National Forest, this project aims to restore ecological resilience, improve watershed health, and reduce the risk of catastrophic wildfire.
Located in a vital watershed that supplies drinking water to the Denver metro area, the project area also supports high-value recreation, including fly fishing, hiking, hunting, and camping. Treatments will improve forest structure, enhance Aspen stands, and prepare the area for future broadcast burning to maintain long-term forest health.
Invasive species control is a major focus of the work, targeting cheatgrass, Canada thistle, and yellow toadflax to protect native vegetation and reduce fuel loads.
Our Role
Stewardship West is providing technical and field-based support for project implementation. Our work includes field reconnaissance, unit layout, silvicultural prescription drafting, boundary marking, timber cruising, and the development of logging plans.
We are also supporting forest stand improvement through reforestation, hazardous fuels management, and woody invasive species removal. By helping prepare the landscape for prescribed fire, we are contributing to the long-term sustainability of this critical watershed and recreation area.
