Starting Again

Driving Highway 20 from Williams Lake to Bella Coola takes you through a few of this summers forest fires.  The fires in the Chilcotin caused a lot of damage to some of the grazing areas of the Chilcotin, burning grass and more importantly fences.  The last time we drove through at the end of July this area was still smoking, but now new fences have been installed and shoots of new grass are coming.  Some of the fires burned pretty hot and didn't leave much for organic material, so it will take a few years for even grass to get started, but once it does there will be some good grass again.  Grizzly
