Arizona fire

That is one big fire. I hope all of you guys, your families and your properties are safe. Even if you're not in immediate danger from the fire itself the smoke can really be disruptive. Take care guys - I hope all is well.

Buzz, The fire is quite a ways from Phoenix, but the thought is great. Thank you. The largest worry right now is for all of the people in Alpine, Round Valley and the surrounding areas and their welfare. Not to mention the untold damage being done to the virgin old growth forests that are being consumed. Too bad the Feds are up to doing something about the illegal issue. This is just another example of the indirect damage caused by illegals. This massive fire started from a camp fire left unattended I believe is the official line.

Fire incidents brings bad memories, wish steps were taken quick enough to prevent the razing fire from spreading.

It would be nice if these enviromentalist clowns would permit cutting timbers so the over growth doesn't create so much condense brush - trees etc. This government is so out of touch anymore; We are in a real crapie time period.

Thin out the dam timber. How many of these fires do we have to go through before someone gets it.

Dan is right on that othet thing as well.
