Do You Have A Steep Driveway? Is Your House On Fire?
A little advice if you have a steep driveway, (and who doesn’t in Walker?)

Pile Burning Planned in the Prescott Basin on the Bradshaw RD
PRESCOTT, AZ, November 9, 2022 – Fire Managers on the Bradshaw Ranger District plan to take advantage of the moisture received and burn debris piles near Lynx Lake and in the Walker Road area. Ignitions are planned to start on Thursday November 10, 2022, and continue through Wednesday November 23, 2022, as favorable weather conditions allow. Fire managers expect smoke impacts to be light in the surrounding areas. Pile burning helps to reduce hazardous fuels in the wildland urban interface and increases ecosystem and community resilience.
