How high can a forest fire get?
Depends upon what kind of fuel, how much fuel, how dry the fuel is, what the weather is, how steep is the terrain, among other things. Most fires are quite low and spread along the forest floor or in low brush. Where the lower fuels encounter a dead or down tree, the fire may "ladder" into the upper fuels (the canopy), possibly creating a much larger fire. Fireline handbooks for fire management include safety-zone tables for forest fires that have flames up to 300 feet high.

What is preventive fire?
When a forest is left alone, there can acumulate a lot of dead wood and plants on the forest floor. The longer it goes without a fire, the more debris builds up and then when there is a fire, there is a lot of fuel to burn. The more fuel the hotter the fire and the more live trees will be destroyed. The Forest service will periodically set fires within an area of the forest and have a controlled burn. This will be a smaller fire that will not damage the larger trees but will clear out the underbrush.
