I don't doubt human involvement in some fires, careless or deliberate, human sources can't be excluded. However, hot dry windy conditions can ignite coal. The safety chain on your trailer can cause sparking which starts brush fires here frequently. In very dry years the forests of the west are tinderboxes prime for ignition. Add high winds and you have perfect storm conditions.
It is also true that BLM, antifa and their cohorts consider outdoor recreation a bastion of white privilege.

I know a fellow who's up there in the food chain some he investigates wild fires. Biggest cause of roadside wild fires is fragments of deteriorated catalytic converters and hot brake parts leaving vehicles.
