This is my second blog for the AmeriCorps internship that I am currently serving in as a range assistant with the U.S. Forest on the Wallowa-Whitman National Forest in Joseph, Oregon. So far it has been pretty exciting hiking in the beautiful landscape they call Hells Canyon, locating and recording water developments. This place is absolutely breathtaking and I’ve gotten to help out on so many exciting projects including utilization monitoring, rare plant surveys, wildland fire school and volunteer work! I have learned so much about so many different aspects of the Forest Service. I have also educated kids about range management and have had so many learning opportunities myself like mushroom hunting and surveying. I look forward to see what the rest of this internship has in store for me.

    She’s off for her school overnight trip! She handled all of her own packing and I am fully confident that means she’ll have at least 95% of the things she really needs. Girlfriend is on top of it! #urchinadventures #montessorikids #overnightfieldtrip #cascademountainschool

    KCD is sad to be losing the amazing Krystal Hedrick, who has accepted a new position as GIS Mapper with the Weld County Assessor’s Office in Colorado.

She served at KCD over the past year through Mount Adams Institute VetsWork, an AmeriCorps career development program for military veterans who want to work in natural resources management.

As a forest technician, Krystal brought passion to her work on KCD’s North SeaTac Park restoration managing a KCD WCC crew to remove harmful invasive plants and prepare the site for reforestation efforts that will improve the park’s ecosystem making it more resilient and beneficial for local wildlife.
