Can you tell me what other state has dense urban environments in drier, rugged, forested terrain and seemingly yearly wind events > 60 mph?

Does not seem like a large venn set to me.

Plenty of front range Colorado would qualify. Sure, it isn't dry year-round, but it gets plenty dry during fire season. And with the pine beetle problem, there are large areas with massive amounts of fuel.
