Anticipating Summer...
and our Environmental responsibilities
Colorado and the West in general is experiencing severe drought ... having said that, we not only can, but really "must" ALL keep one another and our forests and wild-lands safe!
"I know, this topic is of concern to us All! It is certainly mine!
I am sharing my concern - hoping we have "like minded" residents and visitors who will do the very best to protect and preserve this County and beyond from environmental hazards and disasters...
Please know: 80% of wildfires are Human caused: Please don’t be that Human!
- Douse your campfires so that you can play in the ashes and mud.
- Please get a permit from your local fire department before burning.
-
Don’t dispose of your cigarettes anywhere outside!
- Turn your car or truck off when parked anywhere off road and near our parched grasslands—yes running cars can cause fires.
Most of us love and respect our mountains—can we count on EVERYONE (to do the same)?
NEWS FLASH..SUMMIT COUNTY FIRE AND EMS ARE BANNING ALL OPEN FIRES THROUGHOUT THE SUMMER..THIS MEANS ALL FIRES! PLEASE HELP THEM AVOID FIRES IN OUR MOUNTAINS.
Please take in all the beauty..and not disturb it.
Happy Trails - Kerry
