The project is located in Colorado Gulch just west of Helena, MT. The project area has heavy accumulations of downed beetle killed ponderosa pine adjoining a residential area. A cut-to-length mechanical logging system is being used to salvage as much down material as possible as pulpwood and firewood.

The remaining material is being piled for burning this winter.
