Lowering exposure, not just insuring around it
With 46.1% of Bohners Lake in Direct exposure, defensible-space clearing and ember-resistant construction (vents, Class-A roofing) address the exposure this page's own numbers describe, not a generic checklist. See the home-hardening guide.
Where Bohners Lake's figures come from
Bohners Lake's 32nd-percentile score and its burn-probability figure both come from the same USFS workbook, documented in the methodology guide. The exposure-zones guide covers what Bohners Lake's dominant direct exposure actually means, with real examples from across the dataset.
