@Nancy

Of course I’m jesting. You really should get out of your house more offen.

It no more the Smart Meters, Chem Trails, Day Trippers, Chambers or the City’s then it is YOURS!

@Oh No! Surely you jest.

If just another day tripper resulted from Chamber’s cheesy video, so what? It was probably more likely that another Chamber tripper tossed out a cigarette and started the fire than your “smart meters and chem trails working in tandem” theory.

Instead of “Oh No!” I say “Get Real.” Glorify the Chamber? I think not. More appropriately that outfit is “the root of Sedona’s evil.” Them and the money their scamming from the city.

Right on about this being a “wake up call”. I’m surprised that noone has been seriously injured or worse with the increased ATV activity. Just one big rip roaring time of it. Welcome to Sedona land.
Just think how fun it’s going to be when all the new hotels get built and we have more traffic and visitors who are “asleep at the wheel” gazing skyward.

I heard talk while at the circle K that the fire may have been ignited by the combination of smart meters and the chem trails working in tandem. I also heard from someone else that the person who called 911 was a visitor from CA who saw the video to visit sedona while at PHX. Had it not been for the great efforts from our “regional” chamber to attract people, that fire may have gone and destroyed acres before someone else saw it. Thanks Chamber for another job well done!

With the increase activity of jeeps, RV’s, ATV’s and other means of accessing our surrounding trails and forests this type of thing becomes a real threat. Unfortunately all too often it takes disaster before anything’s done to make positive changes. Why wouldn’t even this serve as a wake-up call?

Looked like cigarette or maybe something dragged that caused a spark? Who knows.

There was considerable action on my scanner this morning (between ten and eleven as I recall) and it indicated traffic was backed-up in the area of these photos but I was unable to ascertain the exact nature of the situation. Mostly it served as another heads-up to stay clear of that location.

Thanks so much for being at the right place at the right time. This is another reminder of how quickly things can happen. Have you any idea how this fire was ignited?

Nice job.
