Photos from the Three Rivers Crew

Today we have some pictures that were sent to us from the Three Rivers Crew on assignment in Washington.

 

More Photos from the Fire Line

Good morning once again! We have more photos from the Anthracite crew during their assignment on wildfires. 

On August 11 the crew boss informed us that the crew saved a litter of kittens while doing structure protection, punctuated with a simple "does it get any better than that?"

This one is on the line, at the head of the Lee Fire looking north with 137,485 of burn behind them. This fire was Colorado's fifth largest fire on record.   

"On this assignment one crew boss completed requirements for certification, a new ICT5 gained significant experience, and 20 more firefighters gained a lot of experience for here in Pennsylvania. It was a great assignment involving 3 wildfires in 2 weeks with a great variety of tasks from line building to structure protection and mop up."

"The crew on their way home enjoying a well-deserved lunch break with Colorado style "mountain pie" pizza on the wat home in Idaho Springs, Colorado. After 11 of 14 days spent in remote spike camps they showered and cleaned up a bit for the trip home." Anthracite returned to Pennsylvania on Saturday August 23.
