 American Indian Use of Fire in Ecosystems References
Keeping large areas of forest and mountains free of undergrowth and small trees was just one of many reasons for using fire in ecosystems.
Mentions of prairie and forest fires in August 1837 in the upper Willamette Valley and the mid-Umpqua Valley on pages 96 and 98, then again on September 1st while coming back on the same trail (page 118) These fires were most likely Indian set.
The article was taken from reports by the Salmon B. Ormsby, Superintendent of the Cascade Range Forest Reserve, which he noted that "Indians from the [Warm Springs] reservations and the half-breds...set most of the fires, by leaving their camp fires burning when moving from one place to another" [in the summer and fall of 1899].
