## Resource

A homeowner in Truckee just earned official “Wildfire Prepared Home” status after going all-in on fireproofing—clearing a zero-foot gravel buffer, installing ember-resistant vents, and swapping his roof for metal. His motivation? He lost his home in the 2017 Tubbs Fire and won’t risk it again. Fire officials emphasize that embers are the main threat, so sealing vulnerable spots is critical. Cambron’s setup exemplifies defensible space, but experts say true impact comes when entire neighborhoods adopt these measures, since fire can easily jump from house to house. This story is a powerful call to action: preparedness isn’t just about insurance—it’s about making your home a harder target when disaster strikes.
