Science-Focused Ecological Consulting for the Colorado Plateau
Our Mission
To advance conservation and restoration through accurate ecological data, research-backed methods, and geospatial tools that bring clarity to complex landscapes. We strive to support partners who care deeply about natural resources by providing reliable insights that help protect, restore, and understand the ecosystems of the Intermountain West.
What We Believe
Scientific Integrity
Every project is rooted in rigorous field methods, defensible reporting, and precise species identification.
Clarity Through Data
GIS, remote sensing, and drone imagery help reveal patterns and processes that are not always visible from the ground.
Stewardship of Place
The West is a uniquely fragile and beautiful region; our work contributes to its long-term ecological health.
Real-World
Practicality
We deliver clear, actionable outputs that help clients meet real-world project goals and regulatory requirements.
