The Basin Complex fire was in July 2008. For a dramatic account of the day the fire arrived at the Zen Center, see <http://www.sfzc.org/tassajara/display.asp?catid=4,209&pageid=1313>; Five people stayed behind when Tassajara was evacuated, and managed to beat back flames from all sides and save most of the buildings. The chaparral and hillsides burned completely. These galleries show the same areas, in 2009 and in 2010. The recovery is dramatic, with interesting differences (and similarities) one and two years after the fire.
