Smoke patterns during the Far View prescribed fire, November 2001
Smoke patterns during the Far View prescribed fire, November 2001. Throughout most of the day, smoke production was light to moderate on Burn Unit 2, and drifted to the northwest. Heavy smoke was observed when large oak thickets burned, forming a plume that rose to at least 1500 feet. Dispersal was generally good throughout the burning period. Fuels were lighter on Burn Unit 1, producing light smoke that drifted to the northwest and rose no higher than 200 feet. Around 1600, as upslope winds began to shift downslope, dispersal started to become poor. After 1700, downslope winds began to carry smoke into Soda Canyon from all parts of the burn.
