2018 Carr Fire got established here in similar terrain, but was burning in a 10 year-old burn scar vs. this one, which is 5 years old. Also, the Carr Fire reduced a huge amount of heavy dead and down brush and oak remaining after the 2008 fires. Post Carr Fire this area was pretty slicked-off.
Interesting similarities between portions of the Carr and Camp Fire scars which both burned in 2008 and 2018. I’ve been curious how soon either support another major fire.
