Restoration Goals• Work across all habitat types• Variable mosaic thinning• Reduce wildfire severity• Reintroduce prescribed fire• Increase open habitat • Legacy tree survival, vigor• Structural/species diversity• Restore native understory

Red arrows = fire-adapted landscape lacking disturbance• stand density• competitive stress• uniformity of structure• fuel loads/fire risk• loss of ecological values• loss of wildlife habitat

Blue arrows = favorable restoration transition to more open, resilient habitat type
