Wildfire Preparedness: May 9, 2020

May 9, 2020 by trigby@blm.gov 0 Comments

Vehicles and trailers can be unintentional fire starters. If you are off-roading, remember that your exhaust system can reach temperatures over 1000°F! Driving or parking over dry grass can start wildfires.

Be sure your trailer is roadworthy before heading out with good tires, greased bearings, and no dragging chains – whether it’s a car, truck, or off-highway vehicle – make sure it is current on all mechanical checkups and suited for off-road adventures. #ReadyForWildfire #WildfirePreparednessWeek
