That's exactly what large parts of Yellowstone looked like. Right before this:

I vacationed in Yellowstone Park not long after the fires. It was creepy seeing huge swaths of blackened land and trees. There was a tornado that hit parts of the park earlier that year, and there were areas you could visit that had blackened tree trunks that looked like some giant had picked them up and give them a good twist. It was a fascinating trip.
