Watch for 'widow-makers' in the Stanislaus National Forest

   If you plan to camp or hike this holiday weekend, the USFS is reminding everyone to be aware that the bark beetle infestation has weakened some trees and a windy day could cause one to fall.

   Be careful not to pitch a tent near a dead tree or park your vehicle under one. Keep your eyes open so you don't get hurt by a 'widow-maker' in the forest.
