The federal wildfire occurrence database lists 6 fires within 5 miles of Sugar Tree Ridge between 2004 and 2020, burning about 3 acres in total. None started naturally. None was 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:

• Folsom
• Fairfax
• Sorg (historical)
• New Market
• Berrysville
• East Danville

Every fire recorded in Highland County

Museums hold 561 specimens collected within 10 miles of Sugar Tree Ridge between 1895 and 1973: 501 Animalia, 41 Plantae, 19 Fungi. 12 distinct Species records are shown. Collected by 14521, A. B. Seymour, A. Braun 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.
