Description |
English: stump burning Wildland Fire Use is the management of unplanned wildland fires, such as lightning-ignited fires, to accomplish specific resource objectives and is the preferred option when restoration and ecological values are the dominant considerations. The Slide Fire was so-designated because it was in a wilderness area with a rich fire history, fuels were sparse and there were no values at risk. The fire was lightning-caused and was burning on Slide Bluffs above the Middle Fork of the Kings River. Predominant fire behavior was creeping or smoldering with slow fire spread. Occasional torching was observed in heavier pockets of standing timber. Fire continued to burn throughout the summer. SEKI Fire Name : Slide Fire |
