This management plan specifies long-term stand-level objectives for winter range management, including: harvesting to a basal area objective, managing at a minimum 30-year cutting cycle, harvesting within an opening size objective, designing skid trails to occupy a minimum percentage of cutblock area, promoting a clumpy stem distribution, promoting Douglas-fir at all phases of management, and harvesting in relation to micro-topography. Harvesting opportunities in the transition period (1996-2026) are increased in comparison to the previous direction provided in the mule deer strategy (1996). Harvesting opportunity types are described in detail, including: harvesting trees currently attacked by Douglas-fir bark beetle, harvesting non-Douglas-fir trees in stands with less than 40% Douglas-fir, harvesting non-Douglas-fir trees in stands with 40% or greater Douglas-fir, commercial thinning-from-below, single-tree selection system designed for mule deer winter habitat, harvesting on wetter sites, and harvesting on cool-aspect portions of specific winter ranges.
