Missoula County Homes at Risk in Flood and Wildfire Areas

August 2011

Headwaters Economics has prepared two slideshows as part of our work with communities dealing with climate change adaptation.

These slideshows use Missoula County and Western Montana to illustrate the extent to which homes have been built into flood and wildfire hazard areas which are of particular concern since climate models predict larger and more frequent floods and fires throughout the northern Rockies.
