Working in a team of two, biologists will visit and survey recently burned sites on Forest Service lands throughout the Sierra Nevada. On a typical day, surveyors will wake up before dawn and spend the morning conducting BBWO surveys, multi-species point counts, and rapid vegetation surveys at each survey site. The afternoon will then be spent scoping out surveys sites and travelling between burn areas. Work will be moderately physically demanding, sometimes involving several mile hikes into survey sites and the occasional short (1-4 day) back packing trips to access Photo: Mike Laycock survey sites far from roads. Off-trail travel will be required at many survey sites. The typical work schedule will be 7-days on followed by 3-days off.
