I came into this internship expecting a simple job, a few new skills, and a relatively easy summer wandering around the prairie. I definitely got more than I bargained for&#8230; but in all good ways.<\/p>\n<p>We successfully completed a &#8220;pilot&#8221; AIM program for our field office, participated in and contributed to a variety of projects, saw new country, tried new things, learned something new every day, and despite all of the challenges a field internship can bring, stayed remarkably sane. The skills and experiences I gained through this internship are truly invaluable. I&#8217;m grateful to have been in such an awesome field office learning to manage land that means so much to me! Thanks CLM Internship Program, it&#8217;s been a blast.<\/p>\n<p>To conclude my internship, here&#8217;s a few pictures of things we&#8217;ve been able to do in the past month:<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_79069\" style=\"width: 610px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-79069\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-79069\" src=\"https:\/\/dev-clm-blog.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/file-3-2-600x450.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.clminternship.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/file-3-2-600x450.jpeg 600w, https:\/\/blog.clminternship.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/file-3-2-768x576.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/blog.clminternship.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/file-3-2-1024x768.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/blog.clminternship.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/file-3-2-400x300.jpeg 400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-79069\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">A view of the Bighorn Mountains from one of our final AIM monitoring sites.<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"attachment_79079\" style=\"width: 610px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-79079\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-79079\" src=\"https:\/\/dev-clm-blog.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/file-1-1-600x600.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.clminternship.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/file-1-1-600x600.jpeg 600w, https:\/\/blog.clminternship.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/file-1-1-300x300.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/blog.clminternship.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/file-1-1-768x768.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/blog.clminternship.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/file-1-1-1024x1024.jpeg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-79079\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The view from Middle Fork Powder River Campground, where we spent some time doing maintenance.<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"attachment_79080\" style=\"width: 460px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-79080\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-79080\" src=\"https:\/\/dev-clm-blog.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/file-1-e1513028570241-450x600.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"450\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.clminternship.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/file-1-e1513028570241-450x600.jpeg 450w, https:\/\/blog.clminternship.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/file-1-e1513028570241-768x1024.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/blog.clminternship.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/file-1-e1513028570241-225x300.jpeg 225w, https:\/\/blog.clminternship.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/file-1-e1513028570241.jpeg 1500w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-79080\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">30+ pounds of nails we pulled out of a litter site in Northeast Wyoming.
