Above: dozens of large hay bales were destroyed in the Maitland Fire on August 23, 2016.
The Maitland Fire burned 34 acres of ranch land on August 23, 2016, 12 air miles south of Hot Springs, South Dakota. There was no damage to structures, but there was the temporary loss of grazing acreage, dozens of large hay bales, and possibly some fences.
In the video below the smoke patterns generated by burning objects on the ground are interesting.
OK I will take the bait…. The burning objects are animal poop piles.
