I'm sorry to hear that, but not surprised. There are many "smaller" fires around the state that don't get much media attention. I'm hoping the 'authorities' don't wait for the blazes to grow before deciding they're 'important enough' to throw resources at.

Strangely, the environmentalists aren't worried about the trees when they're burning to black stumps. They only protect the trees from capitalism -- providing jobs and products for human beings.

Calling themselves 'environmentalists' is a euphemism for 'extreme left-wingers', in other words, frankly, Communists.

Yes........and you KNOW the enviros will block all the dead, yet standing, tree sales that the USFS will want to do AFTER the fires are out. This has happened MULTIPLE times here. The enviros would rather see the dead, standing trees rot and fall down and create......what? Yep.......the "pick-up-sticks" fuel load we have now.
