episode_narrativeA brush fire blackened almost 1400 acres near the US Army's Pohakuloa Training Area (PTA) on the south-facing slope of Mauna Kea on the Big Island of Hawaii. The fire began near Mauna Kea State Recreation Area, about a quarter-mile east of the PTA main gate, on Sunday morning, August 22nd. The blaze was difficult to contain because of its elevation - above 6000 feet - and because of the dry and breezy conditions the firefighters encountered. The fire also forced county officials to close a portion of Saddle Road that had been affected by the blaze from Sunday until Wednesday morning, the 25th. The blaze was contained by the end of the month. No significant injuries or property damage were reported, though the fire destroyed critical habitat and food sources for native palila forest birds. Officials determined that the fire had been deliberately set.
