Here are a few numbers from the fire year so far.
Please consider these points:
- These numbers reflect incidents reported to The Wildland Fire Lessons Learned Center.
- These numbers don’t reflect everything that has occurred (many incidents are not reported to us).
- Compiling these numbers doesn’t really mean anything – we publish them in hopes of inspiring meaningful thought and dialogue about risk – maybe even some action related to reducing risk.
