It has been a year since we experienced the Fire on the North Fork of the John Day River very near to our home in Wrightman Canyon. We had a ringside seat of the event from the first hour the dry lightning storm hammered our region of Grant County, Oregon. This is a testimonial about the nature of that fire; and consequently, about our disappointment that some people (for political gain) have used the hellacious Canyon Creek Complex fire as a wedge to turn local residents against the US Forest Service.
I am sick of people making false accusations. Please be sure to read the concluding remarks about the fires in Grant County of 2015.
