December 12, 2007 Non-Native Herbaceous Eradication Field Lab






December found us meeting at the San Juan Fire Station to caravan out to Long Meadow for Field Training Exercises. At Long Meadow we used Weed hounds to successfully eradicate non-native mustards from a traditional Acjacheman weaving material collection area. Ranger Candice Hubert came out to learn about Mustard removal. We spent roughly two hours at Long Meadow and then caravanned to Upper San Juan campground where we once again tackled Vinca.
Bill Croxson and David Taylor show off their Weed Hound Skills.

Continued thanks for Debra Clarke - Wilderness / Trails Manager District Volunteer Coordinator Cleveland NF, Trabuco Ranger District who attends each session.
