Distance is straight-line from the map coordinates, so a fire counted here may appear on a neighbouring settlement's page as well.

The most recent of them, most recent first, with the day each was reported and the service that recorded it.

Settlements close enough to share some of these fires:

• Buckhorn Furnace
• Olive Furnace

Museums hold 124 specimens collected within 10 miles of Buckhorn between 1896 and 1975: 115 Animalia, 6 Plantae, 3 Fungi. 12 distinct Species records are shown. Collected by C. N. Wander, C. R. Neiswander, C. Stein and others. Each is a physical object with a catalogue number, and each entry opens the museum's record. This is what was collected and kept, not a survey of what lives here - nothing can be concluded from a species being absent.
