Bootleg Fire Watershed Damage

A drainage area in the Fremont-Winema National Forest, pictured on Sept. 13, was significantly damaged during the Bootleg Fire.

A nonprofit organization will lend out heavy equipment this month to help those who sustained damage from the Bootleg Fire to clear their properties of debris.

The Bootleg Fire, which burned more than 400,000 acres of national forest and grazing allotments in Klamath and Lake counties, was brought under control and fully contained by fire crews in August after burning for 39 days.
