The 2021 El Dorado Forestry Challenge event was held at a new facility this year, Community of the Great Commission near Foresthill. One of the highlights for the 58 students who participated this year was the opportunity to collect data at Community of the Great Commission and recommend a path that combines harvest and fuel treatment with the goal of protecting the camp from severe damage if and when there is a wildfire.

The results below are out of a possible 250 points:

  • First Place: El Dorado High School Team 1, 204.50 points

  • Fourth Place: Mira Loma High School Team 11, 189.50 points
