In this episode, Ben and Simone discuss forest management plans in for the Blue Mountains in Eastern Oregon and the importance of community engagement in these plans. They also highlight the National Park Service's call for public feedback on visitor services and the challenges faced in maintaining park infrastructure. They focus on several case studies where the Park Service could improve the services available and recreation experiences in our parks.
