Tyler’s Kitchen project proposed on Lolo Forest

| July 3, 2024 12:00 AM

The Forest Service invites the public to provide feedback on the proposed Tyler’s Kitchen Fuels Reduction and Forest Health Project on the Missoula Ranger District, located southeast of the confluence of Rock Creek and the Clark Fork River in Granite and Missoula counties.

This project includes a variety of management activities supporting vegetation health, fuels reduction, and road management on nearly 33,440 acres within the Tyler Creek and Brewster Creek drainages on the Lolo National Forest.

The proposed project is set in an area of the Forest that has been identified through modeling to have increased needs for fuels and forest health treatments to reduce the risk of catastrophic wildfires. The project activities aim to reduce forest fuels to mitigate and reduce impacts from wildfires, restore vegetation conditions to those that are resilient to natural disturbances, maintain a suitable transportation system to support long-term management and public use, and contribute wood products to the local and regional economy.
