Hi everyone! My name is Hannah Gern, and my pronouns are she and her. I’m a United States Forest Service Resource Assistant through the Environment for the Americas internship program.

This summer, I will be working as a Trails Coordinator Resource Assistant for the South Zone of the Inyo National Forest.

During my internship, I will help Forest Service staff, partners, and volunteers care for and maintain a safe and sustainable trails system to ensure public access to the 1.2 million acres of stunning wilderness found on the Inyo National Forest.

I’m so looking forward to working with others in contributing to sustainable access for all to recreate in and experience these incredible wild landscapes.
