I have lived next to a Denver Mtn Park for 40 years. Last year, they started logging mature trees under the excuse of fire mitigation. They took out almost all the big trees on our side of the park. the skinny little (not marketable) trees they left will burn much more quickly than the fire-resistant large trees they removed. They have left slash and logs all over the ground - increasing the danger of a wildfire, not reducing it.
