A solid grilling setup starts with safety tips, especially outdoors. 🔍 Zoom in for a few wildfire prevention reminders I always keep in mind before firing up the grill.

Before burning debris, make sure your setup helps keep sparks under control. If you don't have a metal burn barrel, create at least 10 feet of clearance around your burn area using gravel or dirt. #OnlyYou can help prevent wildfires by preparing the area before you burn.

Go with the flow! 📉 I made a chart to keep your road trip on the right track.

Sparks from your vehicle can cause unwanted wildfires, so see if you’re following the best path for vehicle safety.

If you’re packing for a trip, make sure these things are at the top of your list. A little preparation goes a long way in preventing wildfires.

I made a few stickers for the wildfire preventers out there. Long-press your chosen patch until it lifts, then select “add sticker” (try to avoid pressing on the text). Share one with a friend who sticks to the actions that prevent wildfires.

I’ve been getting a lot of questions about spark arrestors lately. When you’re using lawn or power equipment, check that the right one is installed and working properly. Visit https://t.co/rI2GCm8IO2 for more tips.

Behind every safe drive is a little preparation. Check your hitch, mind your brakes, and choose your parking spots wisely.

Before you fire up that mower, take a moment to plan. The right timing and the right conditions help protect more than just your yard. Visit my site for more lawncare tips.

A great gathering starts with good food and safe grilling. Follow these steps to keep your cookout safe and earn your gold medal. 🏅

If license plates could talk, they’d all say the same thing: secure your tow chains. Dragging metal creates sparks, and those sparks can start wildfires along the roadside.

Taking a moment to check them helps keep your drive safe and our wildlands protected.

I’m kicking off the new year with a run back home in Capitan.

Staying active takes consistency, and so does preventing wildfires. Let’s keep both going strong all year.

[Smokey Bear @smokey_bear]

Making my list and checking it twice, for #DrownStirDrownFeel done just right. Even in winter, wind and frozen ground can dry out trees, which means unwanted wildfires are still possible. Keep doing your part to prevent wildfires this holiday season. ❄️

Headed out for Halloween fun with a bonfire? 🎃

Keep it safe:
✅Keep your fire small and manageable.
✅Never leave your fire unattended.
✅Drown, stir, drown again and feel to make sure it's cool to the touch before leaving.

Just gave you a heads-up before you hit the road for some fall colors. 🍂
