Forest Landscape Restoration Act (PL , Sec. 4003(c)), the natural resources monitoring program objectives are: (1) contribute toward the restoration of the structure and composition of pre-fire- suppression old growth stands, (2) reduce the risk of uncharacteristic wildfire, and/or maintain or re-establish natural fire regimes, (3) improve fish and wildlife habitat, including endangered, threatened and sensitive species, (4) maintain or improve water quality and watershed function, and (5) prevent, remediate, or control invasions of exotic species. Monitoring Objectives:

Monitoring Objectives:

16 sites, 88 traps per site

Expected outcomes and timeframe: Response of small mammal populations will vary based on natural history of species

Golden-mantled Ground Squirrel- Mixed Conifer

Least Chipmunk- Mixed Conifer

Colorado Chipmunk- Ponderosa Pine

Red Squirrel- Mixed Conifer

Montane Vole- Ponderosa Pine

Long-tailed Vole- Ponderosa Pine

Shrews- Mixed Conifer

% Plant Cover was lower immediately post fire But quickly returned and is now higher on burned sites in both mixed conifer and ponderosa pine forest types.

Observed outcomes: Observed outcomes match expected outcomes
