It is a post from a few years ago. Does anyone know more details about this? I have heard of swales or keyline working well to stop fire, it makes sense too. Are there any other well documented examples of this type of fire barrier working?
 
How do they get the deer to cross at the signs? Or to read this tiny ad?
