Huron National Forest : ウィキペディア英語版 | Huron-Manistee National Forests
The Huron-Manistee National Forests are two national forests combined in 1945 for administration purposes and which comprise 〔(Table 6 - NFS Acreage by State, Congressional District and County ) - United States Forest Service - September 30, 2007〕 of public lands, including of wetlands, extending across the northern lower peninsula of Michigan. The Huron-Manistee National Forests provide recreation opportunities for visitors, habitat for fish and wildlife, and resources for local industry. The headquarters for the forests is in Cadillac, Michigan. ==History==
The Huron National Forest was established in 1909 and the Manistee National Forest in 1938. In 1945, they were administratively combined, although they are not adjacent. Huron has about 44.8% of the combined area, whereas the larger Manistee has about 55.2%. The Huron National Forest is prone to many forest fires, for the most part due to the domination of the jack pine trees in the forests, which are extremely flammable. The soil is very sandy, which tends to dry out the vegetation and resources located within the forest. In 2010, the Meridian Boundary Fire burned over in and near the Huron District of the Huron National Forest. The fire destroyed 13 homes, damaged two others, and destroyed or damaged 46 outbuildings.
