Once again we are here thanks to the algorithm. This is some cool content, never seen hotshots doing the work as they do without press on site!

[@charlesbromberick4247]

Speaking as an ex-helattack. when the hotshots walked into fire camp we all opened the way for them - both in awe and respect. The hotshots are definitely a breed apart.

[@corrupted-5465]

why are they starting fires?

[@thehikerchick3056]

corrupted - It’s called a backburn. Basically it removes fuel, ie brush and trees, from the fire if they are at the scene of a brush fire. It is also done in what they call controlled burns to prevent dry brush from accumulating and causing massive fires. They are trying to do what nature does on it’s own but in a more controlled in theory manner. Hope that helps.

[@jermhanson13]

Eastern Oregon Snag abatement

[@MrChancebandit]

And not a single one wearing a respirator.

[@equinsuocha2628]

what kind of respirator do you think they should wear?

[@Sucknutz_]

yeah lets just take 40 lb airpacks up moutains with us, makes sense. Wildland firefighters don't use respirators, MAYBE on defensive urban interface. If you want respirators go structural lol

[@nolimitfishing8266]

@@equinsuocha2628 we wear bandanas or masks

[@jacobdevries1975]

Why make the fire first i dont understand that grtz from The Netherlands

[@HBTwoodworking]

Jacob de Vries It’s a backburn or backfire. They are removing fuel in a controlled burn environment to prevent a future fire or removing fuel to hopefully stop the progress of a main fire. FYI - I am not a firefighter. One of those guys might provide more insights.

[@lucardenas709]

Philip Guhl You did a good job explaining it.
