- The Forest Service Intermountain Region Saw Program works closely with partners to certify “sawyers”, which are those authorized to operate a saw on National Forest System lands. Certified sawyers are needed across all major areas of land management, especially for maintaining trails for recreational use and clearing hazardous trees for wildland fire and fire prevention.
The Stanley Workshop located in Stanley, Idaho in the Sawtooth National Recreation Area is an example of a partner-led training within the Saw Program. It is an opportunity for new sawyers from partner organizations to become certified in both crosscut and chainsaw, and for existing sawyers to get recertified to maintain their qualifications.

A community it is. Spend time with trail sawyers and conversations revolve around saws and axes, tooth patterns, filing angles, micro bevels, wedging, binds, and all the skills they put into practice out in the field.
