Building on many years of collaborative conservation, The Nature Conservancy and members of The Klamath Tribes joined together for prescribed fire training and burning at Sycan Marsh in the Klamath Basin. The reintroduction of prescribed fire is critical to reducing the risk of catastrophic wildfire here and in many dry forests across the West, including across The Klamath Tribes’ homeland. After a week of classroom learning, 74 people joined the burn, including multiple fire research teams from across the country and several members of the Tribes' newly created fire team. This video shares a glimpse at the training program and the burn that marked the first time in generations that members of The Klamath Tribes put fire back on their homeland.
