#flashbackfriday – Tree Phones March 12 2005

#flashbackfriday – We drove up to Tree Phones (4800′) in my 2 wheel drive GMC pickup on March 12 2005. Back before they made people buy a Discover Pass to be on State Public land. Notice there is little snow here March 2005? There were no summer closures in this year at the Ahtanum State Forest due to fire danger. Last year (2021) there was a lot more snow and the state closed all DNR Managed public lands in Eastern Washington due to a made up drought. Your $30 Discover Pass was worthless mid summer 2021 on DNR Managed Land in Eastern Washington. In 2020 these same state public lands were closed because Governor Inslee did not want to you to leave your home. Don’t believe the Leftist Fake Science lies! This is our public land, not the Governments.

FS News: Prescribed fires planned on 6,800 acres across Okanogan-Wenatchee National Forest

FS News: Prescribed fires planned on 6,800 acres across Okanogan-Wenatchee National Forest

News Release
Media Contact: (509) 664-9292 and email [email protected]
Good fire projects planned on 6,800 acres across the National Forest
CORRECTION: The numbers in the subject line in the original news release were not updated after receiving info about two additional units planned for burning this spring. This release shows the correct number 6,800 acres.
Central Washington–(March 9, 2022) — This spring, firefighters across Central Washington will once again be putting good fire to work to help restore watersheds and better protect nearby communities. Frequent, low-intensity fire is essential for restoring public lands and the communities who depend on them.
“As the snow recedes, we are gaining access to our spring prescribed fire units. This spring we will be implementing numerous prescribed burns for fire risk reduction and forest health across the National Forest. Depending upon local weather conditions and smoke potential, we will carry out burning when opportunities present themselves to minimize smoke impacts and meet burning objectives,” said Acting Forest Fire Management Officer Matt Castle.
Just over 6,800 acres of prescribed burning is planned this spring, but not all planned acres may be completed if conditions are not favorable. Conditions include correct temperature, wind, fuel moisture, and ventilation for smoke. When these criteria are met, firefighters implement, monitor, and patrol each burn to ensure it meets forest health and public safety goals including air quality.
“These prescribed fire projects reduce the amount of burnable fuels in the forest, improve forest health, and help lower the risk of future high-intensity wildfires,” Castle said.
Residents and visitors can expect to see and smell some smoke during burning operations. Even though smoke from prescribed fire is usually light and doesn’t last long, it is important that smoke-sensitive individuals plan ahead and be prepared. For more information on smoke and public health, please visit wasmoke.blogspot.com or airnow.gov/fires.
