Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Fire Season has come early.

One fire appears to have started in the recent clearcut (clear proof of mismanagement) along the drag line uphill. The one fire is in the same area as the huge Oso landslide that wiped out dozens of homes and killed dozens of people a few years back. Clearcutting steep hill sides lead to other problems downhill and downstream. That landslide was not caused by logging rather a perfect storm of conditions and over saturated soil. Clearcuts are great hunting because of the new growth spurred on by sunlight, so there's that. Otherwise I find clearcuts to be an ugly scar on the landscape.
