We work collaboratively with a variety of stakeholders —including NAU, the U.S. Forest Service, and Arizona Game & Fish Department —to pursue our goals.
The Grand Canyon Trust’s top conservation priorities include protecting and restoring fire-adapted forests across the southern Colorado Plateau.
The Trust seeks to bring the best available information to bear in collaborative processes and public discourse. We believe in supporting restoration decisions that are ecologically sound, cautious, and science-informed.
- On the Mogollon Rim, we actively participate in the Four Forest Restoration Initiative (4FRI) a collaborative effort to accelerate restoration across 2.4 million acres of ponderosa pine forests using science-based, appropriately scaled, industry supported approaches.
- On the Kaibab Plateau, we support and will help implement landscape-scale restoration that requires a careful mix of small-diameter tree thinning, prescribed burning, and wildland fire use.
- Across Arizona and the western U.S., we are developing science-based agreement around forest restoration through the Arizona Governor’s Forest Health Council and the Western Governors’ Association Forest Health Advisory Committee
Your donations and membership dues make our research, monitoring, and restoration work in Arizona possible.
