The National Wild Turkey Federation has teamed up with the USDA Forest Service in Montana's Bitterroot National Forest to conduct forest restoration amid what has been deemed a wildfire crisis. The restoration is part of the NWTF's Big Sky Forestry Initiative and the Forest Service's Wildfire Crisis Strategy.
The ongoing project, known as the Stevensville West Central Fuels Reduction project, encompasses approximately eight miles of Forest Service boundary in Montana's Bitterroot Valley, stretching between the Sharrot and Silverthorn Watershed in the north and the Sweathouse Watershed in the south.
