Wildfire
loves underbrush and ladder fuel. Workers in this photo are clearing away these
dangerous fuels from around the Womble headquarters.
It's

Another
brush pile shows the work of the crew making the Womble Ranger Station more
FireWise.
It's
easy to see the almost-final results of the Womble FireWise project. When the
brush piles are removed, it will be a newly-FireWise environment.
