Sleepy Fire
The Mount Leona Fire was a wildfire in Ferry County, Washington, in the Kettle River Range, east of Curlew Lake. It was ignited on August 13, 2001, by lightning strikes from a major regional storm that crossed much of eastern Washington. By August 18, the fire was 5% contained, and by August 27, it was 55% due to favorable weather. In the aftermath of the fire, a large-scale timber salvage was attempted; however, only a small fraction was eventually harvested, with economic impacts reported from the failure of the salvage.
