Since 2017 when the whole city was evacuated there’s been a lot of mitigation work done in the surrounding mountains. They got to my hood a couple weeks ago. There’s a few thousand acres of timber between here and town that used to be mule deer winter range. Now it’s going to look like a park. On the bright side I went for a quad ride after work. I found a 15” dbh birch tree off to the side. That’s going to follow me home in a couple hours when it’s light out if the arfritis doesn’t disagree with me.
Cool. Also, check with the Forestry Service, I used to live in a wildfire area and I was qualified to sign up for a couple free cords of wood and they delivered it. Sorry about the arthritis.
