The Pacific Northwest is home to rugged landscapes, old-growth forests, vulnerable habitats, and endangered animals. Adventure Scientists and the United States Forest Service have partnered to take on an unprecedented effort to preserve northwest forest biodiversity, including threatened and endangered species, and we need outdoor adventurers like you to help collect critical field data. Project locations span federally managed lands and require off-trail navigation; it’s a unique chance to explore parts of the PNW that few ever see. If accepted, you will be trained as a PNW Biodiversity volunteer and will receive specific location options and be able to choose a location aligned with your skill level, availability, and comfort with navigation, distance, and terrain in Western Oregon, Western Washington, and Northwestern California National Forests.
