July 7. Iron Complex - Eagle fire. Today we got dispatched to the Iron Complex where the H-44 crash was. When we arrived we started preparing the road to burn off of. As the day progressed we had to start burning to stop a run coming up the hill at us. The wind was not in our favor. As we held up the main fire with our burn we got spot fires over the road. Well into the night, I think 1 am, we chased spot fires.

This picture is from our escape route which was Olie and I driving the buggies along with the burnout.
