There have been some areas here that had commercial thinning that involved a lot of hands on work, but they were limited in size and in recreational sites. There are many tracts that have accumulated a lot of fuel after years of fire suppression but I think they're a bit afraid to light them off. Trying to control them would be miserable. I have spent some time in the forest with a rake: https://www.allhandsfire.com/Mcloud-Tool-Wood and I still have a Pulaski: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulaski_(tool) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ Edward_Pulaski_Tunnel_and_Placer_Creek_Escape_Route I've been on that trail. There are quite a few mines like that that never paid out and were abandoned and Pulaski was lucky to know about that one. Still, it takes a lot of self control to shelter in a mine and hope for the best, but it's better than climbing into a Shaken'Bake I guess.
