The early career professionals will participate in a variety of resource management field projects, including, but not limited to the reconstruction of trails, decommissioning and rehabilitation of abandoned road and off-road vehicle (ORV) disturbance; assessing, repairing, and constructing ORV barrier and ungulate management fences; native plant salvage and seed collection; native plant propagation and outplanting; and removing exotic invasive plants from rare plant and vector locations.
