Helitorching - this was fun to watch

Original Message posted by Carol, 4/25/08, 12:07am

Last week I got to go practice being a fire information officer during a prescribed burn. It was especially fun to watch the helitorching operation.

And of course if there are flowers blooming in the area, well, that's exciting, too :)

Better to burn that stuff off in the spring instead of having it burn on its own in the summer.

Interesting pictures.

I think the heli-torch drops a napalm-like substance, right?
