Looks like it’ll end up being fairly small in terms of acreage, but I fear the impact looks like it’ll be fairly significant in terms of homes etc. I grew up in Kearny, and the kids from Dudleyville got bussed there to go to school so I know some of the families in that area. Word is that some have lost homes. Sucks. 🙏🏼 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Probably salt cedars in the river bottom around Bylas Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thomas... maybe even passed there toward Eden. Didn't head that way today so I don't know for sure. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

On the flip side, 90% of what burned were salt cedars. Maybe they'll suck a few thousand gallons less water in an already dry year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
