Info

Escape Routes and Safety Zones Escape routes are retreat paths that provide rapid access to safety zones. Safety zones are locations where wildland firefighters can shelter from threatening fireline. The most common escape route, or part of one is the fireline. Escape routes lead away from the fire – downhill or opposite the fire’ s direction of spread. There should always be more than one escape route that leads to an effective safety zone. A single escape route may be cut off. All wildland firefighters are responsible for knowing the locations of escape routes and safety zones. Safety Zones Water sources (rivers/creeks/ponds). Marshy or boggy sites. Large, rocky areas or cliff bands. Large clearings or areas of sparse fuel, particularly deciduous. The burned area. Down slope from the fire. Note: Avoid using caves - fire outside the cave will pull the cool air from the cave and replace it with smoke and hot gases. Page 46 of 61
