Russian Wilderness Photomonitoring

August 31, 2016 by Michael Kauffmann Leave a Comment

The Bigfoot Trail Alliance joined forces with the Salmon River Restoration Council to hike up Russian Creek in the Russian Wilderness. At the trail’s high point, we put in the third of six photo-monitoring plots as part of our Citizen Science and Climate Change grant from the Rose Foundation. Below are links and pictures from the trip.
