[QUOTE="FireFlyFishing, post: 3041872, member: 127412"] So, it depends how often the satellites doing such work make passes over areas. Google will survey urban areas far more than remote areas of NM for updated imagery/maps. It may occur every few months on the high side and maybe…every couple years in remote areas. ONX is an app developer/GIS company. They provide a fantastic app and service. However, their data is all provided by outside companies and/or gov’t agencies. So what you see on the app is only as good as the data they are able to obtain. Catastrophic wildfire recovery occurs over several decades or even centuries depending on the ecosystem. Some of the worst damage in the Calf Canyon burn scar will not recover in your lifetime. Some will recover in a decade for the less severe portions. “Destroyed hundreds of thousands of acres” is very broad stroke of the brush and frankly, untrue. The good news. The animals will adapt to their new home. It may change their patterns…that’s up to you to figure out. Often, wildfire will benefit elk habitat by opening up overgrown timber and provide more grazing opportunities for the animals. [/QUOTE]
