The 2021 Shasta Forestry Challenge was classic forestry with a modern twist, with 42 students and 9 teachers from 7 schools in attendance. The focus topic site was a 40-acre parcel owned by Camp McCumber. Students conducted a forest inventory of the mixed conifer area and recommended the most economical, logical, and legal prescription to create a more firesafe landscape while continuing to provide a forested camp experience.
