Aztec Springs Prescribed Burn - January 2017
In January 2017, the City of Santa Fe Fire Department (SFFD) led a prescribed pile burn in the Santa Fe watershed with the Forest Stewards Guild providing support. 8.5 acres of piles were burned, safely reducing hazardous fuels and thereby reducing the risk of a catastrophic wildfire to the nearby neighborhood and the City of Santa Fe.
