Some areas within the 2018 Camp Fire burned under high and mixed severity. Left unmitigated these dead, dying, and structurally damaged live trees will become hazardous fuels. We propose to remove fire killed trees that would become dangerous fuels.
Location
Areas along the 23N00 and 23N28 Roads between Coyote Gap, Highway 70, and Big Bar Mountain, including Big Bar Mountain where the Forest Service lookout was consumed and the radio repeater destroyed.
