Soĺ Cal fires
Before pictures of the driveway leading to my Forest Service residence/ fire station spring 2019.
After picture of our entrance on 9/10/2019.
Notice a completely unburned Oasis?
My fire station and the residence is like two trees away, hard to see.
Almost looks as if some bad *** firefighters lit a successful backing fire and steered the 17,000 acre fire around the compound.
Here’s the fire station.
Circa 9/9/2019
Oh, wait. Some bad *** firefighters DID light a backing fire that steered the 17,000 acre Santa Ana fire around the compound! Duh!
The winds are definitely higher on the Palisades fire but this is a testament to what one (1) US Forest Service type 3 fire engine and a crew full of ex-hotshots can do. We didn’t even flow any water. Just charged the lines. It was all backing fire placed at the perfect time by smart and brave young men, most making $17 an hour.
This is my resume.
