We found out this afternoon that we will have to move from our site in the campground tomorrow because on Thursday the Forest Service is going to conduct a burn on the meadow next to the campground. As you can see from the thick pine forest in the campground, moving is indeed the prudent thing to do. Although it’s called a “controlled burn”, I can recall a number of controlled burns that have gotten out of control. We will move temporarily to the Logging Museum parking lot for Wednesday and Thursday nights, then back to our site on Friday.
Sounds prudent to me. "Controlled" burns like the one near Wizard Falls on the Metolius a couple of years ago reinforce that point! Sometimes Mother Nature has other ideas!
