Work to support and enhance the return to traditional foods by reincorporating fire and traditional practices to manage landscapes. Traditional management practices included the use of fire on the landscape to remove understory plants and ladder fuels (where appropriate), to enhance growth of traditional food sources, and actively support a variety of wildlife. More recent forest management practices do provide for and support deer and elk populations that are central to hunting. By combining current practices with traditional practices the forest can be managed for multiple benefits including reducing the risk of catastrophic wildfires while also restoring conditions that support the growth of traditionally harvested species.
