Landowner Burning in Butte County, California

The Butte Prescribed Burn Association is an alliance of people who want to support eachother in using fire to reduce wildfire hazards or enhance the ecological function of their private property. The project was spearheaded by Wolfy Rougle, at the Butte County Resource Conservation District as part of a Watershed Coordination grant from the California Department of Conservation (DOC). I have been working under this DOC funding, coaching landowners on how to safely use fire as a management tool, and training students of the Butte Prescribed Fire Training Exchange (TREX). This video shows a group of landowners conducting just under 10 acres of low-intensity burning in thinned pine and black oak forest. The pine trees here are spindly because this area used to be choked with 12 foot tall manzanita and the trees had to fight for sun. The landowner thinned and burned piles of brush for years. Now, he can use fire to keep the manzanita from taking back over, and also, to kill small conifers to keep the area from becoming overcrowded with trees. We've had great weather for prescribed fire the past few weeks, and have been getting a lot of burning and filming done for a longer video about prescribed burning in Butte County.
