Ponderosa pine and Lodgepole pine "need" fire for propagation. Redwoods do better with fire.

As to lightning fires, well, right now we have one burning that was started by lightning on July 26. It is at over 100,000 acres, 85% contained. One started by lightning on July 23, over 30,000 acres, 95% contained. One started by lightning on July 24, over 15,000 acres, 95% contained.

Not unusual to have lightning strike fires out here.

I'm not sure what you are saying, Gene. Are you saying that forests
don't need fire to rejuvenate and maintain health?

Yes.
