The Drainage. Today we moved to the Red Ridge drainage. Our goal it to hold Red Ridge since it is the only fire in the area not actively burning hundreds of acres. Light rains have been our saving grace. Gila IHC is running 4 saws everyday due to the heavy dead and downed trees and slash. Which is great news since that means I get to cut everyday as fourth saw. My legs aren't used to the added saw weight but its been fun cutting. My saw partner is Ian. He's got 6 years experience hotshoting and he's the assistant squad one boss.
