The Intermountain Forest Association is a non-profit organization based in Rapid City, SD, dedicated to promoting sustainable forestry practices and the preservation of forest ecosystems. Led by Executive Director Ben Wudtke and Forest Programs Manager Molly Pitts, the association works closely with the U.S. Forest Service and the University of Wyoming Ruckelshaus Institute to document and address the impacts of the mountain pine beetle epidemic, while also focusing on the recovery and future of forests.
With a Colorado office located in Salida, the Intermountain Forest Association is actively involved in research, education, and advocacy efforts related to forest management. Their 10-part video series, "Our Future Forests Beyond Bark Beetles," explores various aspects of the mountain pine beetle outbreak, including biology, recreation, fire, watershed, volunteers, elk, timber, and regeneration. By providing valuable insights and resources, the association aims to contribute to the long-term health and sustainability of forests in the region.
