David Gonzales
Skiing in the trees near Jackson Hole Wyoming, David Gonzales saw firsthand how the pine beetle was attacking and killing the forests in Grand Teton National Forest. In response, he started Treefight and enlisted folk, including pro skier Lynsey Dyer, to repel this dreaded invader. The solution: create a network of hikers to go deep into the forest and staple packets of pheromones to trees to protect them.
