The Boulder Creek Wilderness Project is a collaborative community project to address several critical needs in the Umpqua National Forest: to reopen trails in the Boulder Creek Wilderness and to conduct monitoring for post-fire erosion, water quality, and invasive species. In addition to these numerous benefits for recreation and conservation in the Boulder Creek Wilderness, this project addresses the social aspects for some underserved demographics: Source One Serenity, a local grassroots nonprofit organization for veterans, will perform trail work which creates opportunities for veterans to be introduced to the healing power of nature in a meaningful way.
