Grassland fires are occurring more frequently in the West, and with a year-round fire season, it’s more relevant than ever to keep a close eye on our grassland fuels. In this episode, we discuss guidance on grassland fuels management and how Colorado’s climate, winds and mountains all shape grassland conditions in the wildland-urban interface. We share guidance for land managers to approach grassland fuels management and information for homeowners to build familiarity with grasslands, home hardening and local community wildfire protection plans.
