This project involved creating fire break prescriptions in the McKinney Community Watershed to reduce wildfire risk. The Baldy Ski Resort and community worked with wildfire specialists to develop a wildfire fuel management project. The resort cabin owners were supportive of the treatments. A contractor completed the treatments at
the designated locations which provides a landscape level barrier in an otherwise large forested drainage.
