There has to be a better way on burns

Not sure how many community members are still stressed from last year’s fires?

I know I am, and to watch the forest service conduct a prescribed burn again in the same area.

There has to be a better way to conduct this method.

I’m for giving the fire starters an ax and chain saw and not just drip torches.

We all have seen the devastation caused to Ponderosa pines that are indiscriminately victims of wind-driven fire and over people cutting down 400-year-old trees.

There are public meetings and comments pertaining to activity in the national forests. I will attend these and respond.

With enough forest lovers/users, we can look at better practices on burns.
