Ecological Burn along the Denver Section of Sand Creek
Tuesday April 7th, 2009
Thanks to the whole community for supporting the very successful ecological burn. The Denver
Fire Department led the project, with the support of the Denver Parks and Recreation Natural
Areas Program and the Sand Creek Regional Greenway Partnership. Key areas with heavy
growth of invasive weeds were targeted and burned. Ecologists are looking forward to
monitoring the burn areas over the next several months to see the changes to native plants.
