When: August 2-3, 2010
Where: SW North Dakota
Enjoy the breath-taking beauty of western North Dakota and join us on this four-day learning experience sponsored by the ND Geographic Alliance and ND Forest Service that will take place in a classroom on wheels. The charter bus will travel to many sites, while you learn about the geography, geology and forestry of the region. The adventure begins in Belfield and includes a trip to the Ponderosa Pine Forest, the Logging Camp Ranch and north unit of Theodore Roosevelt National Park. US Forest Service staff, on site in the National Grasslands, will discuss management, energy and grazing issues. A trip through the Killdeer Mountains is included on our way to Dickinson where we will join the city forester for a “walk about†town to observe Community Forestry.
