Fall brings time for reflection. This fire season, were you prepared or just lucky? Fire behavior is determined by fuel, weather, and topography. Of these, you can only influence the fuels on your property! The objective is to treat fuels so that when a wildfire burns, it is less severe and more easily suppressed.
