Suppression management A charred forest is nature’s preservation. Flames created the Pincushion legacy. Blackened Ponderosa pine stands in stark reminder. Peachland lives with inevitability and a threat. One extreme season can destroy our ecology and return us to our basic elements. All that remains is our responsibility to avoid, protect and suppress.
Can fire really be managed?
