Document defensible space at a foothill ranch home, near Worland

This ranch home sits against sagebrush-and-juniper foothills west of Worland with dense brush right up against the porch — nobody has ever documented whether the structure's ignition zones meet Firewise guidance. Standard: NFPA 1144 / Firewise USA structure-ignition-zone defensible-space assessment and vegetation management (Zone 0 0-5ft, Zone 1 5-30ft, Zone 2 30-100ft). Entry rung is documentation-only from a safe public vantage; hands-on vegetation clearing near structures/slopes is licensed or credentialed-crew work only. SDG 11.b resilience. Proof: document-only zone photo set (0-5/5-30/30-100 ft) + checklist + GPS Method (NFPA 1144 / Firewise USA structure-ignition-zone defensible-space assessment and vegetation management (Zone 0 0-5ft, Zone 1 5-30ft, Zone 2 30-100ft). Entry rung is documentation-only from a safe public vantage; hands-on vegetation clearing near structures/slopes is licensed or credentialed-crew work only. SDG 11.b resilience.): 1. Document only — photograph Zone 0 (0-5 ft from the structure), Zone 1 (5-30 ft) and Zone 2 (30-100 ft) from the driveway and yard edge; do not enter dense brush or approach any structurally questionable outbuilding. 2. Note vegetation type, spacing and ladder-fuel presence (brush touching tree canopy) in each zone from a safe public/yard vantage. 3. Photograph the roof material, gutters, and any firewood stacked against the structure. 4. Compile the zone-by-zone findings into a defensible-space checklist naming what a licensed vegetation-management crew should clear first; never clear or cut anything yourself during this survey. Done when: document-only zone photo set (0-5/5-30/30-100 ft) + checklist + GPS

This packet is not funded yet, so this figure is a proposed price and not money waiting in escrow. If a buyer funds it, approved proof settles that price onchain. If nobody funds it, approved proof earns provable credit toward the work instead of cash. You see which before you claim, never after.

How this work is done

A documented method, so this packet comes out the same whoever does it. Typically 45–90 minutes. Method of record: NFPA 1144 / Firewise USA structure-ignition-zone defensible-space assessment — documentation-only from a safe public/yard vantage

Bring

• camera with zoom
• GPS-capable phone
• tape measure or pace-count reference
• Firewise USA zone checklist
• field notebook

Steps

1. 1. Document only — photograph Zone 0 (0-5 ft from the structure), Zone 1 (5-30 ft) and Zone 2 (30-100 ft) from the driveway or yard edge; never enter dense brush or approach a structurally questionable outbuilding.
2. 2. Note vegetation type, spacing and ladder-fuel presence (brush touching tree canopy) in each zone from the safe vantage.
3. 3. Photograph the roof material, gutters, vents, and any firewood or combustible material stacked against the structure.
4. 4. Compile the zone-by-zone findings into a defensible-space checklist naming what a licensed/credentialed vegetation-management crew should clear first; never clear, cut, or move anything during this survey.

If it does not match the plan

• Any combustible material (mulch, firewood, dry vegetation) touching the structure in Zone 0 -> flag as highest-priority clearing item.
• Ladder fuel (brush contacting tree canopy) found in Zone 1 -> flag for a credentialed crew's thinning pass.
• Any structurally unstable or fire-damaged outbuilding observed -> do not approach; note location only and route to the local fire authority.

What counts as done

• Photo set covering all three ignition zones from a safe, named vantage point
• Roof/gutter/combustible-storage condition photographed
• Zone-by-zone checklist compiled naming the follow-on clearing job

Proof is measured against these, not judged by taste.
