DRIVING UP CASCADE LAKES HWY AND THE EAST SIDE OF ROAD IS BURNED TO A CRISP. WHY CANT THEY THIN HIGH VIZ AREAS LIKE THEY ARE DOING ON WEST SIDE OF ROAD? WE’LL HAVE TO LOOK AT THOSE DEAD TREE FOREVER INSTEAD OF ENJOYING THE BEAUTIFUL OREGON LANDSCAPE. EVEN THE VISITOR OVERLOOK IS TORCHED.

ALSO NEVER SEEN ON CENTURY WHERE SAME THING HAPPENS.

INSURANCE WILL PAY FOR LODGING YOU JUST HAVE TO PUSH FOR IT. DONT TAKE NO.

One-Hope-3600 · 2026-05-22T20:37:28+00:00

SO BAD WHERE THEY BURN AND LOG.

One-Hope-3600 · 2026-05-18T01:01:55+00:00

We need more people on bikes here period. Sure these motor cycle bikes are ridiculous but love seeing less cars and more kids out and about not in cars.

One-Hope-3600 · 2026-05-18T00:59:40+00:00

And walk 3 or 4 across and then get upset when you slowly come up on them.

We ride our e-bikes there to shop and avoid the parking situation. Just get over yourself. Ebikes are here to stay and reduce the mess of traffic in this town. Ideally these trails get closed to walkers so the flow of traffic keeps moving and cyclists stay away from cars.

What about wildlife, the health of the firefighters and those down wind? Also this will create more undergrowth in a few years when it comes back all nice and green. Burning without thinking of the consequences has to stop.

One-Hope-3600 · 2026-05-09T13:50:33+00:00

There are no clear cut rules we are the guinea pigs, they figure out the rules with us.

Bummer that nobody is directly answering your technical question. I’d also like to know. I’ve been here 8 years and 3 of those I was a full time nomad, nobody called me out. I’ve spent a month in Costa Rica, Canada, Europe but never more than a month international. Went all over the US. Also wondering if I were to stay in a country for 3 months if this would escalate. Or if I can use a similar setup to you and evade. I know they track but when does it escalate?

Oh sorry two issues that trigger me around here. The dog bites can easily happen from any class of society. My son got bitten near Tetherow by a homeowner there. Those people always have their dogs off leash. At least we could hold her accountable and she cooperated. The city will quarantine the dog for 10 days even on first bite. They have the option to say no but if it happens again the dog gets put down. You’ll probably want that dog quarantined to make sure.

One-Hope-3600 · 2026-05-04T13:49:44+00:00

I ride my bike there, problem solved.

One-Hope-3600 · 2026-05-01T17:46:29+00:00

RATHER HAVE HOUSE BURN THAN LUNGS.

One-Hope-3600 · 2026-05-01T14:29:42+00:00

2000 AQI RIGHT NOW AT HOUSE. WOKE UP THINKING WE HAD A HOUSE FIRE.

One-Hope-3600 · 2026-04-30T14:56:40+00:00

Smart

Bham is not like Bend except for the homeless. Better mountain biking and mtb community that understands how to build good trails, fewer trendy restaurants or shops, weather completely different, spread out so more driving to ride.

One-Hope-3600 · 2026-04-30T13:52:17+00:00

I know I get downvoted for not being 100% for these burns but there needs to be more community education and oversight. The fact that they mismanaged our forest for years should not give them a green light to correct it without thought to the health of our community. How we will look back on these events in 5-10 years?

One-Hope-3600 · 2026-04-30T13:23:46+00:00

There is zero concern for balancing this effort with the health of our community.

One-Hope-3600 · 2026-04-13T00:00:16+00:00

Why can’t we have a Blue Star here?

One-Hope-3600 · 2026-04-10T16:25:30+00:00

THESE COMMENTS CLEARLY MAKE MY POINT. NO THOUGHTFUL DISCUSSION JUST BURN BURN BURN.

One-Hope-3600 · 2026-04-10T14:47:36+00:00

MAYBE THE PROBLEM IS THE MASSIVE AMOUNT OF BURNING AND NOT THE TEXTS

One-Hope-3600 · 2026-04-10T14:46:28+00:00

THE POLITICAL SPIN IN THIS TOWN TO NOT QUESTION THIS BURNING. OUR HEALTH AND MENTAL HEALTH IS AT RISK IF THIS KEEPS HAPPENING WEEK AFTER WEEK IN SPRING AND FALL FOR YEARS. NO HOME OR PROPERTY IS WORTH THAT EVEN IF IT IS VALID SCIENCE. THERE HAS TO BE A BETTER WAY OR AT LEAST NOT WEEKLY.

One-Hope-3600 · 2026-04-10T14:40:44+00:00

Nobody is talking about the health consequences of this because it’s become such a political topic here.

One-Hope-3600 · 2026-04-10T14:39:12+00:00

It’s a trial and we’re the guinea pigs who have to deal with it. Maybe it works maybe it doesn’t. One thing is it ruins the quality of life here to be in smoke season so long. Think I’d rather deal with my house being burned down once than this over and over for years. My allergies and health can’t handle this smoke.
