Maps

This year all maps and all data are contained in one map interface. There is fire and stewardship data for all 50 states. It’s a LOT of data, so please give the map a minute to load. Our 11 Western Burn Morel states show at the top of the state dropdown. There is a tutorial for this new interface here. All historic burn morel maps are available in the toggle at the bottom of this column.
