Last year's York fire has sparked discussion about how to deal with conflagrations in the Mojave National Preserve.
The Kousch House stood in the Mojave Desert for nearly a century — first as the residence of a prominent homesteader, then as testament to humanity's ability to survive harsh and forbidding environments. Now, all that remains of the landmark is a limestone chimney surrounded by charred rubble.
Preliminary estimates based on remote sensed imagery suggest the fire burned more than 1 million Joshua trees, according to U.S. Geological Survey research ecologist Todd Esque. The destruction came on the heels of the lightning-sparked Dome fire, which in 2020 decimated what was known as the world’s largest and densest Joshua tree forest. The USGS’ most recent modeling puts the toll of that fire at 800,000 Joshua trees — a downward revision of earlier estimates of 1.
