Since this will be a long post with pictures I will break it into two posts. The dead trees are just the tip of hundreds of acres that were killed in the last big fire here and the Tree Huggers stopped them from cutting them while they were still ok for lumber. The results you can get a small idea of in the following pictures. All of these pictures were taken within 5 miles of my house and Shasta Dam is just to the right of the ones of the fire.
