Part 10/12:
Maintain Clear Access: Keep roads and trails wide enough for firefighting equipment to reach all parts of your property.
Prepare Emergency Equipment: Stockpile fire extinguishers, hoses, and protective gear, and have a plan for rapid evacuation.
Remove Fuel Sources: Regularly trim or remove highly flammable trees like pines and cedars that can accelerate fire spread.
Stay Vigilant & Educated: Having knowledge of fire behavior, as gained through military training, can make a critical difference in response efforts.
