A Controlled Burn in the Ocala National Forest









We saw smoke in the distance.












A brush fire...
We should report this.








No need to report this.
It's a controlled burn.












We could feel the heat 
from the fire as we drove past.











This trail has been burnt over.
There is smoke in the distance.








As the underbrush burns away,
felled trees smolder.
















This dead tree is still standing.
It's burning in several places.













Very small trees survive 
the controlled burn.






Off roading today was fun and educational.  I look forward to more adventures!
