The smoke from a 14-acre Prescribed Burn, being conducted in Henry Cowell Redwoods State Park, is being seen as far north as Ben Lomond. The Burn is being done in an area off of Graham Hill Road near the campground, and its part of the long-term strategy to reduce the threat of wildfire. This burn is also designed to help maintain the rare Sandhills Habitat in the area, because it relies on fire to maintain a healthy eco-system.
