Fuels Reduction and Defensible Space

 As a hired equipment contractor for Cal Fire we have the opportunity to experience wildfire first hand. This photo was taken just prior to our being sent to remove fuels from around a small group of homes. We were able to work for about 5 hours before we were forced to retreat in the face of the advancing flames. Sometimes 5 hours isn’t enough. 

A Straightforward Explanation

After the Caldor Fire the Pacific Southwest Region of the US Forest Service created an excellent series of videos that provide a simple and concise explanation of why wildfires are becoming an increasingly serious problem and what can be done to address this threat.  Although these videos discuss landscape scale mitigation efforts the same principles apply to smaller projects.
