Excerpt from Prescribed Fire Planning in the Intermountain West The use of fire is increasing rapidly as management of both private and public lands intensifies. In 1964, in Montana and northern Idaho alone, more than acres of forest land were broadcast burned under controlled conditions. This was more than double the acreage burned in that area during 1959.
