Marshall Gulch Aspen Fire

The village of Summerhaven, atop the Catalina Mountains north of Tucson, Arizona, is recovering from the devestating fire on Thursday, June 19, 2003. That fire destroyed tens of thousands of acres of forest land and wiped out 325 of 450 structures on the mountain.

The fire was extinguished when the summer monsoon rains finally arrived on July 15. Marshall Gulch was at the edge of the Aspen Fire as seen by this burned out log.
