Actually they wouldn't be volcanic ash, just rivers of ashes from
burned brush and trees coming down the gullies.
The huge uncontrolled fires in the forests are being caused by the
bark beetles, which killed the trees weakened by the drought. Those
dead trees, which are normally evergreen, turned into giant torches.
That certainly is _not_ a 'normal part of the life cycle"!!

I think we must allow bugs to be part of the natural cycle. And of
course one of the results of the burn is that the bugs are gone - so
you get a whole clean new growth.
Mudslides and flooding are also part of the natural cycle- you want to
let them take their course too?
