Post-wildfire restoration in the 2018 Camp Fire area on the Plumas National Forest

In the mountains above Paradise, Calif., blackened trees still stand — a natural testament to the 2018 Camp Fire, which destroyed 90% of the town of Paradise, along with most of Concow, Magalia and Butte Creek Canyon, killed 85 people, and grew to more than 150,000 acres in a rare November wildfire that at the time was the most destructive in California state history.

Since then, communities continue to rebuild and land managers continue their work to restore the surrounding wildlands and prepare for future wildfire.
