Hazard tree education has been an important program within the Cooperative Extension Service Forestry program. We have provided several workshops on hazard trees and provide individual tree assessment by phone, e-mail or through on-site visits where possible. If you have concerns about hazard trees on your property, please consult our listing below of information on hazard trees in Alaska. The United States Forest Service also has important hazard tree materials which can be found through the web links below.
