Volunteers Remove Defunct Fencing

A group of 16 volunteers removed approximately one mile of fencing on the Humboldt-Toiyabe National Forest’s Spring Mountains National Recreation Area (May 2016). The defunct fencing was left behind from an old grazing allotment that has not been functional for decades. The group removed over 360,000 feet (1,200 pounds) of barbed wire and fence posts. Wildlife such as elk and mule deer, and wild horses were getting caught and injured in the fence. The work helped to make the area safer for both visitors and wildlife. This project was coordinated by Friends of Nevada Wilderness, U.S. Forest Service, and Great Basin Institute.
