Abstract
The Wallowa-Whitman National Forest (WWNF) identified forest conditions in the Morgan Nesbit area that are at high risk of loss from disturbances (insects, disease wildlife). By applying a landscape approach, the WWNF has identified 87,000 acres where management will aim to move forest, riparian and grassland conditions toward an ecologically resilient landscape.
