2021 brings an exciting new chapter to our work restoring lands in the Elephant Hill Wildfire area. Last year, field crews from Secwepemc communities gathered data to determine the areas that continue to show poor recovery. Using this information and knowledge about the land, we created an ambitious plan aimed at restoring as much riparian land as possible, with limited resources.

This summer, field crews from SRSS member communities have been busy collecting data about how vegetation is recovering after the fire, and there have been several project activities that are advancing the restoration of the fire area.
