One of the awesome things about fighting wildfire is the places it takes you. Its like a paid working vacation. I have been privileged to go to many beautiful places I wouldn't normally choose to go. But unlike a vacation there is still work to do.
In the pictures below you will see some of the scenery we were able to enjoy. As for the work part, well the small lake we at our disposal to tap into. Our job was to get the pump set up and running. That took some time, and in fact we needed our Strike Team Leader to help us get it going. these Mark 3 pumps are really good pumps but the are also tricky. Those of you who have worked with them know what I am talking about.
We just didn't fill the tanks for visitors.
Here is my guys and the Strike Team Leader working to get the pump going.
It was dirty and dusty. The more traffic there was the more dust. But hey what do you expect, it's summer. Tho at times, as you will later see it didn't always seem like summer.
