Fire Break of Foreigner trees! sure the residents of these Seapoint houses are very thankful for the foreigner tree fire break!
Foreigner tree fire break! OLD GROWTH BIG TREES. The fire here was a cooking furnace!
If the trees were not here one wonders what would have happened to these homes! Just like one wonders..(an old resident told me) what would have happened if the old growth tree firebreak that was on the mountain was left over the mountain!!
He says the fire would not have even reached Seapoint!
