Thank you for your input. While I'd like to believe that every fire was natural, perhaps avoidable by better forestry management, my skeptical mind goes to suspicion of arson, especially in light of all that's going on in the world.

I lived in Aguanga for 10 years. Massive fires.
One started by an arsonist burned 25K acres, cut off power for 10 days, destroyed the main road into Idylwild for six months. He got one year.
One started by an illegal pot farm run by a cartel. No one punished.
One started by an illegal pot farm. Came within 100 feet of my house. Local water truck saved my house, along with airdrops. No one punished.
Many others. ...."

You mentioned a link you wanted to share? Were you referring to the one in your comment (and thank you for that) or a secondary one?
I lived in California for several years, BTW, love the state, love the people, despise the politicians who are attempting to deliberately destroy it.
