With a sigh of relief, post-fire monitoring for our crew finally\u00a0came to an end when I\u00a0finished and closed the final report. The field monitoring portion had ended a couple of weeks before, and since then we had been trudging through data entry and report compiling. For me at least, “trudging” is putting it lightly. I seek out jobs with strong field components for a reason, and working 10 hours a day on a computer is really not my thing. I know data reports are crucial components to the whole process, and I am grateful to be a part of it: learning, contributing, chiseling\u00a0away at my character building, etc… but future cubicle mates be warned, grumpiness may\u00a0ensue (keep snacks handy).<\/p>\n

Let us reminisce:<\/p>\n

For our last fire monitoring field day, our dwindling crew set out to tackle\u00a0the Spring fire. It was a cool and very<\/em> windy day. As you can see in the photo, I was a little chilled.\"IMG_20150915_122631672\"<\/p>\n

It was an easy plot to monitor, and an uncomfortable hike in. This was due to the overwhelming amount of cheatgrass. Unfortunately, our monitoring job is easier when there is less plant diversity, and\u00a0the cheatgrass gets in my socks and drives me crazy (see Ode to Cheatgrass<\/a>).<\/p>\n

Fortunately, we had the Halloween tree to protect us from the cheatgrass…<\/p>\n

\"Boo!\"<\/p>\n

And loving, charred trees…<\/p>\n
