Charred Area

Charred Area

This photo shows a charred area and was taken at Chinsegut Wildlife and Environmental Area. Often conservation areas such as this will set controlled fires so that any uncontrolled fires that occur can be contained. Once kindling such as dead branches and leaves are burnt, the likelihood of a fire starting in that area is decreased significantly.
