wild fires

I'm glad you used Youtube as a video source. Some people might have wanted to avoid it because of "quality" or "professionalism" but I found the footage very real, especially the second one. I'd like to know more about the danger of surface fires as opposed to the crown fires. I never imagined any of the fires being surface as I only recall seeing crown in the media, and I've never seen a wild fire in person. How do we balance living minimally with having "wide roads for firefighter turnaround". Are homeowners required to be shown sanborn and natural disaster mapping?
