Why The Video Looks Shaky (Don Ward)
Updated: 06/18/2013 - We did a quick helicopter tour of the Black Forest burn area. Someone asked why the video looks shaky.
Smoke could be visible around Fort Carson Friday and in the upcoming weeks, as the Mountain Post begins burning debris leftover from a forestry project.
According to Fort Carson, environmental staff with the base will begin burning 250 slash piles, which are branches that accumulated after a forest thinning project. The burning was prescribed in order to reduce the risks of a fire in training areas on Fort Carson.
The base said in a release that they developed a plan to reduce smoke impact by "combining favorable weather conditions with a variety of management techniques designed to keep smoke to a minimum."
The prescribed burning begins Friday and is expected to run through March.
