It's burning everywhere
The Western U.S. is on fire. On the Active Fire Maps webpage, it lists 74 incidents (including wildland fire use fires). I'm currently tracking 14 of those fires and mapped three this morning: the Oak City, Dog Valley, and Sunset Canyon Fires on the Fishlake National Forest. Luckily, none of the current fires are really that big. There are a few 20,000 - 40,000 acre fires, but mostly the fires are 1,000 - 10,000 acres. Lots of them. All over the country. The fires I'm watching now are in Wyoming, Minnesota, Utah, California, Nevada, Oregon, and Arizona. Things are hoppin'!

The Fishlake area is on fire? Is that taking in the beautiful aspen forest you hike through on the Doctor Creek trail? Man, I hope not! There's history there with all the carvings and it's so beautiful in that little forest.
Well, what about an answer?
