This video is the first time I pulled out my camera because we expected it to blow up and until we were on the bus, I just wasn't thinking pictures. You are looking NE as our division superintendent and crew leader make sure everybody is accounted for as we head for our safety zone in the opposite direction. I took 13 minutes for the crews to hike to the busses, and in that time the spot fire (the size of the one in the video) had traveled 1 1/2 miles to where we see it crossing the road in the background. The burned area on the top of the hill we hiked off of, protected us from fire making a direct run at us as. I imagine it came around and burned all of these trees, portable pumps and hoses but staying out of the way of that "front" is the most important thing to do.
