Thanks!

The photo shows the legacy of the fires in Oregon. The Biscuit fire is over 500,000 acres. This fire was allowed to burn from the Kalmiopsis Wilderness until it got out of the Wilderness.

The fire was started by lightening. The Fire Ecologist branch of the Watermelons call this a good fire. A fire caused by nature. A good fire in a wilderness can't be put out by man. They have to stand around and watch it burn until it gets past the wilderness boundaries. Then they try to contain it.

When I heard that lightening had struck in mid July in the Kalmiopsis Wilderness, it was easy to predict what would and did happen thanks to the Fire is Good Agendas of the Fire Ecologists.
