Description

Would you know what to do if you were caught in a forest or grass fire? With an average of 8,600 wildfires fires in Canada annually, the danger of being entrapped or burned over by a wildfire is a real threat for people living, working, or visiting in rural areas and wildlands. There are four main survival options if you ever become trapped by a wildfire: retreat from the fire and reach a safe haven, burn out a safety area, hunker in place, or pass through the fire edge into the burned-out area.
