Predictive Services Discussion: High pressure over the Southwest will gain strength and expand into the
Great Basin and Northern Rockies. Isolated dry and a few wet storms will be possible along the Continental
Divide and across the northern Great Basin and Northern Rockies regions in the afternoon. While winds will be
generally light across the West, afternoon humidities will be quite low. Looking north to Alaska, warm and
continued dry conditions are expected again across the interior. Convective activity should be more isolated
than previous days and limited mainly to the Brooks and Alaska Ranges.

Getting Real About Escape Routes
We always have pre-planned escape routes—right?
Sometimes they become “absent, inadequate, or
compromised.” That is called “an entrapment.” Here’s the
definition from the NWCG glossary:
Entrapment

A situation where personnel are unexpectedly caught in a fire behavior-related, life-threatening
position where planned escape routes or safety zones are absent, inadequate, or compromised. An
entrapment may or may not include deployment of a fire shelter for its intended purpose. These
situations may or may not result in injury. They include "near misses."
So what if you are burning and your plan is to “bring the black with you”…
o But a surprise downhill crown run puts fire below you.
Your planned escape route was back up the line to the top…
o But some unexpected folks show up who are not capable of the fast hike out.
Now the plan is to bring everyone to the helispot—the best available refuge area…
o But the group hiking to the helispot are cut off by fire…
Now the group turns around and heads back up the line toward the top…
o On the way up, a crewmember becomes unconscious.
Each of those changes in the plan can be viewed as a “Red X” on
The Plan
