This fall, Bar T Bar took a huge step in adaptive management by collaring their cattle with Halter virtual fence technology. It was a group effort from Bar T Bar, Diablo Trust, UA Cooperative Extension, among others, and it all came together on October 28 with the collaring of 305 cattle.

As the Diablo Trust looks back on the legacy of its founders, this piece draws on Jack's obituary and on an oral history he recorded on October 7, 2005, with Norm Lowe at Northern Arizona University's Cline Library. Wherever we could, we've let Jack speak for himself.

We're feeling incredibly grateful to everyone who helped make last weekend's film screening such a success. A huge thank you to Mother Road Brewing for hosting us, to our panelists for sharing their expertise, and to everyone who came out to share this experience with us. We’d love to share a few takeaways, and hope you share your own with those who couldn’t make it to the event!

We had such a special time last weekend at Ashurst Run for the Annual Campout. Diablo Trust was joined by folks from USFS, AZGFD, Tread Lightly!, NAU researchers, ranchers, UA Cooperative Extension, and many other representing groups, all gathering on the land. This was a great opportunity for us to learn across the intricate web of individuals and groups shaping rangelands in northern Arizona.
