  • AN ABSTRACT of the THESIS of CONSTANCE J. BURKE for the Degree of MASTER of SCIENCE in GEOGRAPHY
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF CONSTANCE J. BURKE for the degree of MASTER OF SCIENCE in GEOGRAPHY (PHYSICAL GEOGRAPHY) presented on December 5, 1979 Title: HISTORIC FIRES IN THE CENTRAL WESTERN CASCADES, OREGON Abstract approved: Robert E. Frenkel The history of fire between 1850 and 1977 in a portion of the Willamette National Forest in-the central Western Cascades of Oregon was documented using historical sources. Three types of records were available: (1) records and writings not primarily concerned with fire but yielding information about fire in context with human activities, (2) descriptive accounts of fires prior to 1910, and (3) statistical reports generated by the U.S. Forest Service from 1910 to the present. Corresponding to each type of record, this study was divided into three time periods: pre-1850, 1850-1909, and 1910-1977. Information about the pre-1850 period was drawn from reconstruc- tions of aboriginal forest use by anthropologists, archaeologists, and enthnographers. Although four groups of aboriginal people inhabited areas within or adjacent to the study area, evidence is lacking for intentional Indian burning in the central Western Cascades. Uninten- tional burning from untended or abandoned campfires is probable. Coupled with naturally occurring lightning-caused fires, these fires were ample ignition to maintain an age class of125 years or older in the forests of the central Western Cascades. Information about fires occurring between 1850 and 1909 came from a variety of historic sources. All chronicled fires were attributed to man. Many man-caused fires were related to specific human activities, including road building, sheep grazing, and camping.
