Yikes..this fire near Anchorage/Kenai has gotten pretty bad..my friends that live down there are all saying how bad the smoke is. It's 78,000 acres and was caused by a campfire..I'd feel SO guilty if my campfire did that. D: I don't think anyone's homes have burned though, which is good

Holy moly! 78,000 acres!?!? That's so much... That's horrible :( I feel like the whole West Coast is going to end up in flames during the course of the next few months :( I'd also feel SO guilty if my campfire was the cause for such a massive wildfire.

I think one of the wildfires that occurred here in either 2007 or 2003 was caused by an originally "controlled burn" that they weren't able to actually control... Pretty sucky.

I wanna smell the chokecherry trees!

This is awful. D:

Btw, Funny River is such a cute name. (I've never heard of it before.)
