Our top conservation priorities include protecting and restoring fire-adapted forests across the southern Colorado Plateau — especially on the Kaibab Plateau.
The Grand Canyon 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.
- Across Arizona, our goal is to develop science-based agreement around forest restoration through the Arizona Governor’s Forest Health Council.
- Across the Mogollon Rim (which extends from the Grand Canyon to the Arizona – New Mexico state line), our goal is to accelerate restoration across 2.4 million acres using science-based, appropriately scaled, industry-supported approaches.
- In the Kaibab Plateau region, our goal is to support and help implement landscape-scale restoration that requires a careful mix of small-diameter tree thinning, prescribed burning, and wildland fire use.
