Pictures of the McGrew Trail to Sourdough Camp (N. Fk. Smith River) after the Biscuit Fire.

The pictures are of both the area we hiked into before we reached the McGrew Trail and from the western section (west of FS 112) of the McGrew Trail to FS 206 to Sourdough Camp (along Wild North Fork Smith River).

FLOW volunteer feels the burn along the McGrew Trail.

Most of the McGrew Trail was overrun by a high intensity burn (picture taken while walking the McGrew Trail).

There are numerous areas where the burn leaves the McGrew Trail even more unstable.

The fire left very unstable soils and a more dangerous route for OHV access.

Along McGrew Trail, this picture shows that the Biscuit Fire did burn with a very high intensity in this area.

Along McGrew Trail, this picture demonstrates the severe burn intensity to the South of the McGrew Trail.

Standing along the first 1/4 mile of FS 206, looking to the SE.

At numerous points along 206 the route is giving way as trees fall and root systems were burned out..

Weakened 206 and burned out tree.

Along 206, as we approached Sourdough Camp, the fire intensity became less severe.

The Biscuit Fire did not burn through Sourdough Camp, on the banks of the "Wild" North Fork Smith River.  Here is one of the six OHV "cuts" into the hillside at Sourdough Camp.
