A drive through. the Kaibab National Forest and North Rim of Grand Canyon National Park reveals new growth Aspen trees, old growth and recently fire-damaged in the park. The young Aspens at beginning of video grew after a fire there some 20 years ago. Lots of the old growth were not damaged but the Aspens inside the park were heavily damaged along with pines. The Aspens should start to bounce back in a few years and eventually look like the young Aspens at the start of this video in about 20 years.
A shout out to all those firefighters that fought to contain the devastating fire which also claimed the 100 year old Grand Canyon Lodge.

Fires leave such devastation in their wake. We’re just coming into fire season here and there has much a lot of burning off in preparation.

They do quite a bit of prescribed burns here at the Kaibab NF and the forest floor always looks clean but this fire was fueled by very high winds. Hopefully your fire season is non eventful.

So do we. There have already been a few and we’re only half way through spring.
