Cowlitz Wildlife Area -- Noxious Weeds

Wildlife Program

This project involves the removal of invasive vegetation—including Scotch broom, invasive blackberry, ivy, and other non-native plants—within a designated wildlife area. These invasive species spread aggressively, crowding out native plants that wildlife depend on for food, shelter, and nesting habitat, and they can alter soil conditions and natural ecological processes. Dense invasive growth also reduces plant diversity and degrades habitat quality for birds, mammals, insects, and pollinators. By removing these invasive plants, we help restore native vegetation, improve habitat structure, and support healthier, more resilient ecosystems that better sustain wildlife now and into the future. Dry camping will be an option for those that would like to participate for multiple days. This project is eligible for Master Hunter hours.
