In 2000 the Cerro Grande Fire burned into the town of Los Alamos and the Los Alamos National Laboratory. In 2011 the Las Conchas Fire, three times larger, covered some of the same ground. Now, much more is happening in these mountains, including managed and prescribed fires, fuel reduction projects, old-growth restoration efforts, and more. State agencies, NGOs, universities, and individual citizens have led to landscape-scale restoration projects that reduce uncharacteristic fire risk, improve fish and wildlife habitat, restore watershed health, reduce invasive weeds, and stimulate the local forest products industry and the regional economy. The tour will visit sites within the Jemez Ranger District of the Santa Fe National Forest, the Valles Caldera National Preserve (National Park Service), and Bandelier National Monument.
