For the past three years I have worked as a wildland firefighter in Idaho. It has been a very rewarding experience that has enriched my body, mind, and soul (contrary to popular belief, I do, in fact, have a soul). Here are some highlights from last fire season (2005).
Torching Pine, Gregory Fire
Pillar of Fire, Wet Gulch Burn
Torching Juniper, Triangle Burn
Firewhirl, Wet Gulch Burn
Initial Attack, Clay Creek Fire
It's hotter than it looks!
