THE DAVIS MOUNTAINS RESORT FIREWISE COMMUNITY

INTRODUCTION: Davis Mountains Resort is located in what national, state & local fire-fighters refer to as the Wildfire Bullseye of Texas. That’s why in 2012 DMR became a Firewise Community recognized by FIREWISE USA. We are one of two communities in the Trans Pecos to be so designated (McDonald Observatory being the other). Firewise USA’s “Firewise Communities Program” is a project of the National Fire Protection Association and is co-sponsored by the USDA Forest Service, the Department of the Interior and the Texas Forest Service. DMR’s Firewise Community is sponsored by the Davis Mountains Resort Volunteer Fire Department. 

MISSION STATEMENT: The primary goal of the Firewise Program is to encourage and assist DMR property owners who desire to improve their wildfire preparedness. Participating in Firewise is voluntary – if you choose to take part, any actions you take on your property are entirely up to you. All of our efforts, whether part of or independent from Firewise, are multiplied when taken as a whole - the sum is greater than its parts! 

WHY BE FIREWISE?

  • Learn new steps you can take to enhance your property’s defensibility.
