fire patrol
Forest flame guards
A fire patrol is a group assigned to watch for and respond to fires, especially in forests or wilderness areas during high-risk seasons.
The term also applies to the activity itself: Rangers conduct regular fire patrols during dry months.
Fire patrols may detect new fires, monitor existing ones, or enforce fire safety regulations in vulnerable areas.
