The burning of forests only adds to this air pollution problem of the Owens Valley. During last summer with the Kennedy Meadows fires, the Owens Valley was smoke filled for two weeks. It is now warmed up and our windows are open and the smell of burnt forest is all around. There are many bare burnt areas on the Eastern Side of the Sierra's. This current management policy just adds another burnt area to this high desert country.
Lets stop the burning of the forest and habitat.
There must be a better way to manage the Big Horn Sheep problem. I worked for the U. S. Forest Service for three summers and spent two of the summers at Crooked Creek, elevation 10,500 feet which was locate among the Bristlecone Pines in White Mountains.
