The reports sound encouraging. Depending on how many trees make it, may end up with a healthier forest?

ridgerunner, were you on a hotshot crew?
No, you rightlane? We're just a regular ol' Forest Service type 2 crew ragtagged together out of sawyers and engine crew members, but a lot of our members are former Wyoming Hotshots. We were working alongside Shasta Lake and Salmon River, along with a contractor called Firestorm.
I really liked working on the Apache Sitgraves. Beautiful country, healthy forests (and a LOT of elk!), and really kind locals. While I believe fire is a natural and important part of forest ecology, I hope the affected people can get on with their lives soon.
i was on a type 1, spent most of the time in and about tal-wi-wi. got thrown in with bitterroot for a couple of days and actually got to work. did you spike out in the meadow at tal-wi-wi?

I hope we can learn form this and start a fuel removal program (i.e. selective harvesting) rather than wait for the next horrific fire.
Haven't heard much, even from my nephew that worked patrol up there for a week or so. I did get an update from Az Game and Fish that they are working on how to get John Q Public back into the area to help bolster the economy. Haven't seen any answers yet. JohnJust curious, has anyone been in the Wallow fire region to assess the damage? I have not seen any photo's coming out of the burnt area yet.
Thanks,
