Crews Continue Prescribed Fire Ignitions North of Taos

Fire crews wrapped up another successful day of pile burning, completing 160 acres along the National Forest boundary with the communities of Arroyo Hondo and Turley Mill.

Tomorrow, crews plan to shift to jackpot burning, which is when concentrations, or โ€œjackpots,โ€ of fuels, like clusters of downed branches from forest thinning, are burned throughout an area.

An interactive map of the prescribed fire area and more information about this work in the Kiowa-San Cristobal Wildland Urban Interface Project area is available online.
