“The National Forest Foundation, chartered by Congress, engages Americans in community-based and national programs that promote the health and public enjoyment of the 193-million-acre National Forest System and administers private gifts of funds and land for the benefit of the National Forests.” www.nationalforests.org/

The Forest Service manages a system of 155 national forests, 20 national gras

slands, and 222 research and experimental forests, as well as other special areas, covering more than 192 million acres of public land. The Forest Service has evolved into a 30,000 employee agency that manages the national forests for a number of multiple uses, including recreation, timber, wilderness, minerals, water, grazing, fish, and wildlife.

A reminder from your Six Rivers National Forest recreation team: please always place trash INSIDE bear-proof trash bins… never next to them.

Recently on the Mad River Ranger District, someone left bags of trash beside a bear-proof dumpster overnight. A bear got into the garbage before recreation crews could arrive the next morning. Even if one bin appears full, please check nearby bins.

When bears learn campgrounds are an easy source of food, they can become habituated to people. That puts visitors, staff, and ultimately the bear at risk. In some cases, habituated bears may have to be removed or euthanized.

A few extra steps from all of us can help keep wildlife wild and our campgrounds safe for everyone.

✔ Use bear-proof bins properly
✔ Never leave trash or food unattended
✔ Double check your campsite before turning in for the night

Thank you for helping protect wildlife on the Six Rivers National Forest.

The 1960s had their own kind of social media... a picnic table.

Families gathered on national forests and grasslands to eat, talk and catch up face to face.

No screens, no notifications… just time together in the fresh air.

This Memorial Day weekend you are invited to come disconnect in your big backyard.

With Memorial Day weekend just days away we hope folks will take the extra time to have fun and recreate. Remember, it’s important to stay safe this by following a few heat safety tips.

In extreme heat, dress in loose-fitting, lightweight, and light-colored clothes. Avoid dark colors because they absorb the sun’s rays.
