Ten Years Ago August 11, 2005 Fire fighters from all over the country are streaming into Pomeroy this week to fight the 41,000 acre School Fire, which started last Friday in School Canyon along the Tucannon, and, aided by heavy fuel loadings of timber and grass, ballooned daily while hot, dry conditions, steep ground and an abundance of grass caused the fire to “exhibit extreme burning conditions” which hampered fire suppression efforts.
