I was in Los Alamos over Memorial Day weekend. The burn area from the 2000 and 2010 fires is getting filled in with Aspen trees, and in a few years will offer one of the most stunning October views in the western US.
Disrupting the Borg is expensive and time consuming!

Ban National Parks…
“The majority of search-and-rescue calls at Yosemite come from along the popular Mist Trail. In 2011, three young people from a Modesto-area church group were swept over the edge of the 317-foot Vernal Fall after climbing over a metal guardrail.
Yosemite, which is visited by millions each year, averages 12 to 15 deaths annually, according to park officials.”

Fire suppression by the Federal government has completely changed the mountain ecosystem in the Colorado Rockies. Invasion of Pinyon-Juniper forest has reduced the sagebrush that is needed for deer during the winter. The Gamble oak is so thick the deer and elk can no longer access the high country summer range. The thick brush is good for black bear populations, which in turn places more predator pressure on deer fawns and elk calves. The natives knew how to increase big game herds by setting fire to the forest every fall.
