Markit! Forestry Management LLC (Markit!) assists clients in mitigating the risks of catastrophic wildfires, restoring native vegetation and wildlife habitats, managing environmental threats to vegetation, and protecting critical watersheds. Founded in 2013 and headquartered in Colorado Springs, Colorado, Markit! specializes in sustainable forestry and vegetation management projects throughout the southwestern United States. We collaborate with landowners, land managers, government agencies, nonprofits, and other stakeholders to reduce forest fuels, control invasive species, and improve the health and resilience of natural landscapes.

Our services include fuels reduction, hazard tree removal, habitat restoration, and invasive species control—delivered with a focus on safety, innovation, and environmental stewardship. We’re experienced in navigating the challenges of remote, sensitive, and high-use areas, often requiring complex, multi-phase solutions.​

These videos showcase two recent projects: one at Chatfield Reservoir, where we partnered with HeliQwest International to conduct helicopter logging for hazard tree removal, and another at Heil Valley Ranch, where our team led forest restoration, erosion control and post-fire recovery. Both projects reflect Markit!’s commitment to applying advanced methods and collaborative strategies to meet the evolving needs of the landscapes we serve.
