USFS Cross Boundary Wildfire Management Explorer

Wildfires on national forests put communities located around these public lands at risk. Ongoing research from the USFS and its collaborators and partners identifies the geography of community wildfire exposure from national forests, described in this story map. These map sets provide visual displays showing at-risk communities bordering on national forests, as well other risk information such as canopy cover, fuel models, and community exposure archetypes.
