[Cdt-l] Yellow Fire - Middle Fork Gila

[nathanael lintner]

Hi Brett,

Thanks for sharing this. Looks like the fire is just about contained at 115
acres and a catastrophe has been avoided. It also says this wildfire was
caused by an abandoned campfire. Most CDT-ers don't build campfires, but
this event does indicate that the Gila is already pretty fire-prone and that
we need to be really careful. In fact the Gila national forest is already
under stage I restrictions (no backcountry campfires, no backcountry
smoking).
