The controlled slash burning
brought a shower of ashes to the
Mission, Tiger, Panther Lakes area
and did a good bit for the blood
pressure this week. If a mountain
could cough, Gold Mountain
would be in trouble, as the thick
haze and smoke almost
obliterated the familiar sentinel.
Memories return of the fire in
1938 that burned for days and
swept near these same lakes. Art
Broetje was the only one camping
near Mission Lake at the time
when a spark from an open fire
started near the Twin Lakes
reservoir, jumped across the road
and took off towards McKenna
Falls. Navy personnel joined with
the CCC's to control the fire, and
a firebreak was bulldozed that is
~till "visible and used as a trail on
the side of Gold Mountain.
The State Department of
Natural Resources office in
Enumclaw received calls that kept
a man in the field calling to
reassure concerned residents as
the brisk wind from the south
carried smoke and ashes to nearby
homes. The burning is considered
a routine operation to rid
logged-off land of slash prior to
replanting. How many birds, nests
and chipmunks were barbecued in
the process is a thought.
Dates to remember that can
be troublesome are that the final
day to file a water claim and to
dig razor clams are both set for
June 30. Not that these can be
done together, but the closures
come on the same day.
Razor clams can be taken
only in the AM hours until June
30. The season will be closed
from July 1 through September
30.
For the procrastinators, the
basic idea of documenting the
needs of this state for water
involves a deadline of June 30 for
individual water claim rights.
