Non-Typical Solutions Report post Posted June 8, 2011 While this fire is still raging, homes still in peril, lives still in the line of the fire, forest disappearing by the hour!!!!! There is obviously going to be alot of timber out there that got blazed but is still standing, reference the R/C fire experience. Will they let logging happen? Wouldn't it be smart to get all that timber out so we don't end up with the same problem on the floor of the now barren forest? Why not start right now while the fire is still hot and get people ready to go in and help out what is left of our barren forestland? Does this make any sense to anybody else or am I just not getting it?? They let the R/C fire sit, and sit, and sit......and then allowed some logging, but it is now a mess out there if any of you have tried to hike through some of that country. Who or what can we do to get our system to take care of this right instead of just letting it sit?? Are we going to stand by and watch or can we do something?? Not trying to diminish the current status of the fire, but really would like to figure some way to be proactive in getting this in front of the leaders who are going to be making this decision. Brewer??? Washington DC??? Sierra Club??? Thoughts??? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Coues Kid Report post Posted June 8, 2011 I think that would be a good idea after getting the fire under control the loggers should go in and clean it up. because if they dont the burnt stuff is just gonna fall and be left in the forest. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
.270 Report post Posted June 8, 2011 the treehuggers will keep it held up in court for a year, the logs will "turn blue", which means they get a kind of mold inside of them, and then they are worthless for lumber, and it will all just rot, just like happened after rodeo/chediski. that is exacly what happened and i'm sure the treehuggers are already readying their case, if they haven't filed already. the apache tribe logged the h e l l outta what burned on the rez. made a lot of money and didn't let a lot of logs just rot. but on the national forest the treehuggers screwed it up. what you say makes a lot of sense. but unfortunately, i doubt it will take place.
