Bald Sisters Fire is now 875 acres, 0% containment and a growth of 50 acres in 24 hours. Staffed with 343 personnel, consisting of 7 crews (20 man is norm), 11 engines, 1 helicopter, for a total cost to date (11 days) of 1.8 Million dollars. Is there any better comparison than throwing money into a fire rather than put it to good use promoting jobs in the woods for a vibrant economy surrounding a once thriving national forest, now defunct and a huge out of control money pit and albatross on the necks of Oregonians and its counties and cities and people who it affects. We have only this week to comment and get on board with the Blue Mountain Forest - believe me they really need some help in managing our local forests, the job just isnt getting done.
