Spring Burn

The Reclaimed Flambeau Mine recently underwent its annual prairie burn. The certified and experienced fire crew from Applied Ecological Services (AES) conducted another successful burn of the grassland prairie. Jana Murphy, the Reclaimed Flambeau Mine’s environmental manager, took some magnificent photographs while the crew was at work. The AES crew said this was “the most beautiful burn they had ever seen.”
