Title:
Beetlemania: an aerial tour of central Colorado forests infested by the Mountain Pine Beetle

Description:
In the Fall of 2008, For The Forest asked me to document the mountain pine beetle infestation from the Williams Fork Valley, south toward Dillon and Breckenridge, Colorado, then west across the continental divide toward Vail and Beaver Creek. We also flew south toward the roaring fork valley to show growing infestation hotspots and areas likely to be affected in the future. Produced by Greg Poschman for For The Forest.

Westbank Fire - water bombers called up
Westside Fire Rescue call in water bombers to put down a fire only 800 meters from homes. Cindy and I were returning from a mountain trip where we were already commenting on how dry the forests of BC were when we came across a forest fire in progress. Darren Lee of the Westside Fire Rescue explains what happened. With already a dry season, many dead trees due to the pine beetle I think we are on the brink of a major forest fire event this year.
