 Ready, Set, Go – Wildfire Preparedness 

Saving Lives and Property through Advanced Planning and Action 

Studies show as many as 80 percent of homes lost to wildland fires could have been saved if their owners had followed simple risk-reduction practices. Proactive mitigation around your property and safe and early evacuation can help protect you, your household, and your property. The Ready, Set, Go action guide provides tips and tools you need to prepare for wildland fire threat, gain situational awareness when a fire starts, and act early as directed by local officials.  

 It is not a question of if, but when, the next major wildland fire will occur. Use this Action Guide to help you become wildland fire ready!

Wildfire Risk Assessments

The West Region Wildfire Council offers FREE Site Visits for landowners in Aldasoro Ranch because it is a Wildland Urban Interface (WUI) area and at risk for wildfire.  

Are you ready for a wildfire? 

During a Site Visit a Wildfire Mitigation Specialist will meet with you or your property manager, at your property, to discuss site-specific wildfire risk and wildfire mitigation strategies and recommendations. 

During this 45-60 minute consultation owners will receive the following.

  • Site specific information about their home’s structural ignitability.
  • Specific recommendations for potential changes that will help ‘harden a home‘ and make it less vulnerable to ignition during a wildfire.
  • Site specific information about a property’s vegetation, within and outside of the Home Ignition Zone.
  • Specific recommendations for changes to, and maintenance of, a property’s vegetation.
  • Detailed information about WRWC’s  Vegetation Management Incentive Program funding.
