Not this year, or next. But in far fewer years than you now suspect, it will regain its full glory and then some.

I watched Mt. Lemmon burn and thought we had lost something wonderful, but a mere two years later those burned areas were the greenest most lush areas in the Santa Catalinas.

Nature has more stamina that we can ever imagine.
