May 21. Burnout. During the wind shifts we tried to move out of the thick smoke. Then quickly back into position to look for spot fires in the green side of the road. Our saws are spaced out on both ends of the crew. Behind Gila is Blue Ridge and PV. Twice during the burn my saw partner Brian and I ran to the front to help drop some large Juniper trees on the line. Killer on my knees. We also caught several small spots after wind gusts. One was caused by a burning rabbit running into the green.
