Frijoles Fire holds mostly steady; fire officials say trespassers tried to enter camp
Key Points:
- Wildland fire officials recommend the "Ready, Set, Go!" system to help residents prepare for and respond to approaching wildfires, with each stage involving escalating levels of readiness and action.
- The "Ready" phase focuses on planning and preparation, including creating a family disaster plan, assembling emergency kits, and identifying evacuation routes and contacts.
- During the "Set" phase, residents should dress appropriately, gather supplies and water, alert others, and take steps to protect their home by removing combustible materials and securing doors and windows.
- The "Go" phase means evacuating early if you feel unsafe, without waiting for mandatory orders, and heading to a predetermined safe location with emergency supplies and multiple evacuation routes planned.
