SCHEDULE
TBD
Interested in a mountain climb? John Punches, an OSU Extension Forester who also happens to be an experienced mountaineer and mountain rescue leader/trainer, has offered to take a small group on a beginner climb up the south face of Mount Hood. (Original plans to do South Sister had to be changed due to access limitations.) The event will feature basic instruction in mountaineering, followed by a summit attempt. Participants should plan to arrive in either Bend or Portland no later than early afternoon on May 1. The group will convene at Timberline Lodge in the early evening of May 1, and climb very early on May 2. The climb will conclude by mid-afternoon on May 2, allowing ample time to get to the ANREP conference location that evening.
Mountain climbing experience is not required, but participants should be in good physical condition and anticipate a 6 mile round trip with about 5,300 feet in elevation gain.
This pre-conference offer is informal (not officially connected with the ANREP conference) – contact John at john.punches@oregonstate.edu if interested. John will work with you to help you identify gear requirements and gear rental options, and to help you prepare for the climb.

Travel to Chiloquin to tour the Chiloquin Community Forest and Fire Project (CCFFP). The CCFFP is a partnership between private landowners, federal and state agencies, and other partners. The purpose of the project is to achieve fire resistance, fire response, forest health, wildlife habitat, and grazing objectives on private lands on a landscape-level scale, across boundaries, with Fremont-Winema National Forest.
Along the way, we'll hear from people like you who deliver programs like the Citizen Fire Academy Program, Learn & Burn Program, and the Master Gardeners Firescaping Program.
