The 2025 fall Forestry Challenge season got off to a strong start, as the Shasta event had its largest attendance ever. A total of 115 students from 18 schools participated. Students conducted a survey of an SPI Plantation to make recommendations about future planning and management.
Results are as follows out of a possible score of 250 points:
- First Place: Nevada Union High School Team 21, 208.8 points
- Second Place: Foothill High School Team 7, 201.7 points
- Third Place: Middletown High School Team 19, 201.5 points
