When looking at historical wildfire data for westside cascades wildfire where it says something like 1200 since the last fire/disturbance how much salt would you take those dates and spacial data? Seems like we make alot specific choices based on a incomplete data set.

Also what are your thoughts on prescribed fire and thinning on "wet" side forests?

Thinking about https://www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.1112839109#sec-4

From there conclusion it does not seem like ether thinning or prescribed fire will be effective in reducing the risk of catastrophic but relatively infrequent wildfires. Does that line up with you thought?
