Smoke and Flames

Some recent sights at Great Basin National Park.



A fire crew came up from Lake Mead to burn over 75 wood piles. Pinyon and juniper were thinned around the park headquarters and residential area a couple years ago to make the area more defensible in case a large fire came. The dry wood put up quite a bit of smoke, making for some interesting photos.
