It is heartbreaking to see the miles of brown, dead pines, in the hills of AZ. What used to be a beautiful forest, is now acres and acres and acres, of brown, dead trees. Just standing there, with no plans to remove the dry, rotted timber.

Yup. It’s the same in central & eastern Oregon, where the trees are mostly pines. The western Oregon forests have not been greatly affected, I don’t know if it’s because of the different tree species or if it’s just because they haven’t gotten here yet.
