Low Intensity
A common misconception is that fire is always bad. When settlers arrived in the American West, wildfire suppression became a standard practice. The suppression of fire allowed for fuel loads to build, causing larger, hotter, and more destructive wildfires. Today, landowners and conservation groups understand the importance of fire and are now prescribing low-intensity fires to different landscapes to prevent these large, intense wildfires from occurring as frequently. In early September 2019, a crew of over 200 volunteer and career firefighters from Nebraska, Wyoming, Colorado, and South Dakota came together for a wildfire suppression training exercise in the Wildcat Hills, an area in western Nebraska near Scottsbluff and Gering. This training exercise has created community, trained firefighters from Nebraska and surrounding states to gain skills to combat wildfires, and provided low intensity burns to reduce fuel loads, as well as manage the Wildcat Hills’ ecosystems.
