English: In August the Castle Rock fire surrounding the mountain resort town of Ketchum, Idaho, burned over 48,000 acres. After the fire was contained the threat of flash flooding and debris flows took center stage. Sherrie Hebert, Pocatello WFO Service Hydrologist, joined a Burn Area Emergency
Response Team to assess the flash flood and debris flow potential in the burn area. The crew spent two days primarily conducting water repellency tests, collecting GPS data and taking photographs of the more intensely burned areas. The following days were flash flood and debris flow risks, which were then presented to various agencies and concerned citizens.
