Good to see some of those fire starts in the upper Joe and NFC.

Prospect fire on Sunday. I’m betting they aren’t too sad watching it burn a bunch of logging slash

I swear the trees and brush in the North Fork are actually asbestos and nomex

It's been the "asbestos forest" as long as I can remember. Even had an old timer that was one of the original Clarkia Hot Shots tell me they called it that since he could remember.

The Jones Cr fire is sure growing fast.

The Moose fire is getting pretty big.

Always strange to hold opposite feelings simultaneously re forest fires.

Bummer about the fire restrictions in Central. I will be there next week and will really miss having a campfire.

And why restrictions in Central and not in the area adjacent to the west where the biggest number of current fires actually are??
