| Abstract | Light the individual trees directly by pouring a heavy stream of burning fuel on the trunks. Light the ground needles and any shrubs under the tree while backing out from under the canopy on the windward side. By directly lighting several trees, the ambient temperature of the area increases rapidly and understory plants are ignited. It is this initial torch of several trees producing a flame length of 30 to 40 feet, with proper atmospheric conditions, that is necessary to develop a fire which will carry. |
