Helicopter brings heavy machinery for electrical crews to install. In April, 2010, about six months after the Station Fire, re-growth has yet to appear in some of the burn areas of the in Angeles National Forest.

Areas with less re-growth often have whiter soil than areas with re-growth indicating topsoil may be gone with only bedrock remaining. The Station fire, the tenth largest wildfire in California History burned over 160,000 acres from late August to mid October 2009.
