Large scale hugelkultur?

Hello all,

A friend of mine is a partner in a 1,300 acre property in CA, outside of Yosemite. It is a high risk fire area and they are constantly clearing dead trees and brush. A lot of it has to be burned in the winter because it is too large for chipping. While a huge bonfire is fun and solved the problem of getting rid of what becomes dry season tinder, it seems like a waste. Does anyone know of any large-scale hugelkultur examples? .

To me it seems doable. The land is already quite contoured naturally, and has creeks and ponds and lots of different environments. They have heavy equipment on the property.

There are several folks who have done some large hugelkulture mounds.

What are you calling large scale?  One great big one like this:

Or lots of beds over a large area similar to this?
