A Story of Fire - Small Group Photo Tour
Wildfires play a crucial role in the natural ecosystem and kick-start regeneration by providing ideal growing conditions for a new, healthier forest. Join us on an interpretive photo tour about wildfires, with a focus on nature's resiliency and the long-term benefits to the ecosystem.

The tour itinerary of A STORY OF FIRE is flexible and changes upon seasonal highlights. Fire is part of the Rocky Mountain ecosystem, native plant and animal species have evolved to live with fire. The first years of regrowth will showcase an immense transformation in vegetation. Wildlife will thrive on these new food sources and adapt well to post-fire habitat changes.
