Talk:La Mesa Fire

Jump to navigation Jump to search

The references on the La Mesa Fire at Bandelier National Monument in New Mexico in 1977 contain an error. It states that there were no fatalites, but there was one fatality as firecrews "cut and run" as the fire exploded into a firestorm. A Bandelier National Monument employee suffered a heart attack and died. A traditional New Mexico marker, a descanso, indicates the place where he died near the entrance to Bandelier National Monument. This fire was one of the first of an explosive new kind of firestorm in ponderosa pine forests and was one of three fires, the first in 1954, the second the La Mesa fire and the third, the Dome Fire, that warned--or should have--Los Alamos of its vulnerability to catastrophic firestorms. That reality came to pass in May 2000 with the "millenium fire," or the Cerro Grande fire, the first "super fire" of the 21st century.

I have added a reference to support the mention of both the fatality and the memorial near the entrance to Bandelier. Oneirosphere (talk) 17:12, 22 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
