Forest Fire at George Bush Giant Sequoia

   A forest fire that  started near the George Bush Giant Sequoia, (shown on the right) in the Sequoia National Park is still under investigation. The fire, now extinguished, was first believed to have been caused by lightning, but the National Forest Service is now
asking for information anyone might have as to who may have been responsible.

   Called the George Fire, some are wondering if the fire was set by someone for political reasons. It burned approximately 1700 acres.
