under Control

Usually when we see a plume of smoke on the Black Hills horizon, we get a little concerned. It often means a wildfire has started. This one is a controlled burn in the National Forest, getting rid of downed timber and other fuels. These burns will hopefully keep things from getting serious next summer. From this distance of several miles, it has a strange resemblance to Mt. Vesuvius.
