Overview

Basics

Basics
This 23.7 acre project will complete fuels reduction treatments throughout the Diamond Peak Ski Resort. Most of the ski area has already been treated for fuels reduction through NLTFPD’s previous and on-going projects. Neighboring property consists of USFS and private property. Funding has already been secured to reduce fuels on the USFS property and NLTFPD is also implementing treatments on the private property as part of their NV Regional Fuels Reduction Project. This project area is the final piece of the puzzle that will connect over 1,000 acres of contiguous hazardous fuels reduction treatments within the WUI Threat Zone of Incline Village.

Threshold Categories

  • This fuels reduction treatment will enhance tree skiing opportunities for people recreating at Diamond Peak Ski Resort. The Tunnel Creek Flume Trail bi-sects the project area and the treatment will enhance hiking, biking, bird watching and general solace provided by healthy forest ecosystems.
  • The treatment will improve the health of large dominant trees by reducing unnatural accumulations of understory trees and shrubs that would not be present under a natural fire regime.
  • The project will improve the wildlife habitat for large raptors and owls by creating conditions more suitable to their needs. Suitable snags will be retained within the project unit.
