I fight fires for a living and believe me when your out there and you see all the under brush around you the Red Flags go up FAST! It is the dead trees laying down, brush built up over the years from no fires or people thinning the forests which Mother Nature did a long time ago. Instead of a ground fire the brush burns hot and fast causing enought heat to get to the tops of the trees and start a crown fire which no matter how much water you have can't be put out! We need to thin the forests, put in roads so fire fighters can get in to put fires out instead of being droped from a Plane or Helicopters. Our big fire started that way we could not get to it because of the brush and trees so the little lightning strike turned into a 78,000 acer fire in trees they would not allow roads or cutting to be done in. Don't have to worry about cutting those trees now there gone! Mark H.
