The federal wildfire occurrence database lists 32 fires within 5 miles of Pinedale between 2004 and 2020, burning about 175 acres in total. 1 started naturally. 2 were recorded as arson. 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:

• Athol
• Fryeville
• Partridgeville
• The Street
• Camp Caravan
• Eaglesville

Every fire recorded in Worcester County

Museums hold 1,360 specimens collected within 10 miles of Pinedale between 1856 and 1975: 713 Animalia, 442 Fungi, 181 Plantae, 15 Unrecorded, 9 Protozoa. 12 distinct Species records are shown. Collected by A. Melander, A. Melander & A. Melander, A. P. Baker 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.
