Here are some fire pictures from a few fires we have been on this year. The Constantia fire was about 1/10th acre, real small... the first 2 pictures. The Rush was much bigger, but we only spent one long shift on it... rus and rus2. The next 2 are ones I took of the Juniper and the last is the Rainbow fire on the Klamath National Forest.

This fire season has been painfully slow since July. We haven't had a fire since the end of that month, so we have been doing a variety of little projects around the station. The latest thing was cleaning the water tank. Below you'll find some pictures I took of the yukky process. Every time we do this I vow that it will be the last time, and yet, year after year we have to do it again. Check it out... YUK!
