A resource specialist prepares to mark a boundary during the layout for the 12-Mile Wildlife Habitat Improvement and Commercial Thinning Project on Prince of Wales Island, Alaska, April 30, 2026. Wildlife, aquatic, and timber resource staff marked boundaries and trees on Prince of Wales Island in preparation for contract development. The project is a partnership between the Forest Service and the Mule Deer Foundation to improve wildlife habitat by thinning young-growth trees. Active management like this keeps forests open, healthy and productive. Thinning overcrowded stands strengthens forest resilience, improves habitat for wildlife, provides economic opportunity, and helps fuel rural prosperity. National forests are working forests that provide the everyday resources our communities depend on. (Forest Service photo by K.K. Prussian)
