Forest fires at the junction of Hejiang, Sichuan and Chishui, Guizhou are still being disposed of in an orderly manner. Why is it difficult to put out mountain fires?

Everyone is worried about the forest fire at the junction of Hejiang in Sichuan and Chishui in Guizhou. With the cooperation of rescue forces, the forest fires in this area have been basically controlled, and there are still a few open flames, which are also being deeply cleaned up. Life is hard to die, and mountains are hard to die, especially in this extremely hot weather this year. These trees are very dry, and once there is a spark, they may burn instantly.

Forest fire prevention is a very important task. When a fire broke out at the junction, rescue forces from all over the country took part and used helicopters to carry out water lifting operations. There is a saying that a single spark can start a prairie fire. Some trees were burned to a stump, and the burned place was a mess. Bamboo fell on the road and the masses helped clean it up. With the joint efforts of everyone, the fire was basically controlled.

There are many reasons why it is difficult to put out mountain fires. Mountain fires are particularly easy to rekindle, and it is usually difficult to find them in the early stage, which will lead to danger and cannot be detected in time. In addition, the steep terrain in the mountainous area also adds a lot of difficulty to the rescue. At first, when the fire was very small, the forest made these flames completely invisible. Only when the fire became bigger could everyone find them. Coupled with the wind blowing, it will spread rapidly this year.

Firefighting in the mountains will be more difficult for firefighters, because the terrain is complex and the traffic is very inconvenient, so they will face many obstacles in the rescue process. At this time, more manpower, material resources and the physical strength of rescuers are needed, and it is very likely that the mountain fire will resurface as soon as it is put out, because there are dense vegetation in the forest and many objects are easy to burn. Such a large area needs to be cleaned with isolation belt.
