Forests are cyclical, keep that in mind when looking at fires across our country. Fires also used to burn for years before being suppressed naturally
Also, the fire in Banff this week was a RX burn that got out of control. Sadly, most of their burns go this way. Terrain and intense fuel loads.

Are you sure about that? I've seen many go just fine. I know the guy who started their burning program, and he had a hell of a fight to get it going.
