January 23, 2009 – 9:34 pmForest Fire in Taos, NM 2003
[The white speck moving across the smoke at the beginning of the clip is a fire fighting plane.]
Video taped in my backyard during the Encebado fire that burned a 5,400 acre tract of the Taos Pueblo’s reservation land including watershed and areas sacred to the tribe. The Pueblo has been continuously inhabited by this tribe for over 1000 years. It was remarkable watching the tribes response to this natural disaster which they considered to be . . . . natural. I found the spectacle which lasted for eleven days both fascinating and disturbing.
