The Rosette Nebula, which is one of the nearest high-mass star forming regions, is probably the best place to study the effect of high mass stars on their local environment. This program proposes to map the western part of the nebula as well as three smaller non-associated parts with IRAC and MIPS. These regions were missed by the previous IRAC and MIPS surveys. With the new observations we cover virtually the entire nebula and also match the deep near-IR FLAMINGOS survey of the region. Combination of the near to mid IR photometric data and high resolution spectroscopy of young stars embedded in the nebula will help us answer fundamental questions regarding the star formation history and the propagation of star formation in the cloud. By comparing our results with those for less violent star forming regions, we will be able to study the effect of high mass stars on the surrounding star formation environment
