Pole Creek Mudslides

October 05, 2018 12:00 AM
The raging fires in Pole Creek have stopped but danger still lurks. The danger resident’s now face are mudslides. These mudslides are the results of a 'burn scar' from the Pole Creek fire. A burn scar occurs on a mountain side after the forest has been burned. This leaves nothing but debris and ash. Then when rain comes and hits these areas there are no plants to suck it up or keep debris and mud from sliding down the mountain. This then causes flash flooding and mudslides.
