Pocket Fire Contained Thanks to Proactive Forest Work | Tucson News
The Pocket Fire, which scorched 27,000 acres and threatened Flagstaff and surrounding communities just months ago, is now officially out—thanks to years of proactive forest management. When the blaze nearly reached homes, it was slowed dramatically in areas treated with prescribed burns and thinning, giving firefighters the edge to contain it. Officials are already planning more controlled burns and thinning this fall, knowing that a little smoke today beats a wildfire tomorrow.
