What Do We Know - After a Fire?
The Recreation Residence Program has suffered losses over the years due to fires. If you would like guidance with the post-fire, clean-up and rebuilding process, NFH is happy to help and connect you with the right information and process. We have learned a few lessons, sadly, from experience, and we want to share what we know with you.

| You've done all you can to prepare, helped clean up the fuels around the cabin area, and followed all the orders. At times, the worst can happen and a fire will impact your cabin or cabin tract. Now what? Sometimes, it can take days or weeks to learn the fate cabins in the path of a fire. Often the forest is closed while fighting the fire and for some time afterwards.

| | With Recreation Residences, rebuilding is not a given.
The USFS will work with the Burned Area Emergency Response (BAER) team which is tasked with completing required post-fire assessments to learn the viability of a cabin lot for rebuilding. This process can take some time, often half a year or more. Get answers to your questions from our
