LastBoyScout Posted September 9, 2017 Posted September 9, 2017 Was through the Castle Park on business Friday and saw lots of big iron, D9 Caterpillars, log skidders, several pits for mixing fire retardant for choppers right along the edge of the West Castle river. Looks like the lady who protested logging in the Castle Valley and is now the Environment Minister has decided to fight the fire now threatening the area. Who says you have to harvest the timber or let it burn. The thing burning is tax payers money to save as much of the forest as possible so it can burn in some future year. 1 Quote
Ricinus Posted September 10, 2017 Posted September 10, 2017 With everywhere so tinder dry, letting it burn might not be the right decision for this time.. Mike Quote
trailhead Posted September 10, 2017 Posted September 10, 2017 Yeah the people that own vacation property at the Castle Ski Hill, and the community group that owns it. Are probably okay with that action plan. Quote
Taco Posted September 10, 2017 Posted September 10, 2017 Then we'll have the dipshits who'll protest the prescribed burns Quote
DonAndersen Posted September 13, 2017 Posted September 13, 2017 Or dipshits who argue against Fire Smart programs. http://www.aema.alberta.ca/documents/FireSmart-AEMA-Presentation.pdf Don 1 Quote
