Explore Eastern Sierra forests through the lens of forest and fire ecology.
Why are bark beetles thriving across the region?
How are climate change and past forest management reshaping which species are present today?
What allows wildfires to become more extreme?
Visit our new StoryMap to explore areas around Mammoth Lakes that hold key lessons into how human activity and climate impacts have reshaped Eastern Sierra forests and how we’re working to address this. This Forest Health Tour provides an opportunity for self-guided exploration of three sites:
- Inyo Craters
- Voorhis at Sherwin Lakes
- Mammoth Creek Parcel
You can explore these sites virtually or take the tour in person using your phone.
