Yes a lot of raking.
Quoting: toyota_mdt_tech ICC, do you have ponderosa pines?
Mostly ponderosa. Before the fire some doug fir, white pine, gambel oak, aspen. Aspens are coming back. Some gambel oak is recovering.
We tried blowing needles several years ago. Sometimes, in some places that would work. Part of the problem is the almost constant drought. Much of the time, like now, it is so dry, that dirt blows away too. The pictured area has some grass but it is in clumps with bare ground between. If it gets a little moist the dirt will not blow away. Several tons of crushed stone would be one solution, but I also like the native grasses.
It is so dry I raise an impenetrable dust cloud behind the truck on the 6 miles of dirt in and out. There is not much traffic so mostly I do not eat others dust. Thankfully. The engine and cabin air filters can get dirty in a hurry. -izzy
