Inside an Arizona Forest Fire
May 8th, 2023: Prescribed fire is an important tool used by land managers to protect and enhance the health of the environment, while protecting private property. By encouraging low-intensity forest fire, future high-intensity fires are greatly mitigated. High intensity fires are traditionally rare and can cause destruction to old growth trees as well as human property. Decades of fire suppression in the United States' past has demonstrably led to large, destructive wildfire in modern times. This underscores the importance of high-frequency, low-intensity fires.
The Marteen Rx began on May 8th, 2023 and was slated to burn a few thousand acres of Kaibab National Forest land.
