2 1/2 Mile Fire Went Gunny

We were performing a burnout out operation when the other side of fire had an ember cross the dozer line and created a spot fire that almost compromised our vehicle staging area.

The flames that were coming off the junipers were over 50 feet in height. I could feel the heat from the flame front that was approaching. I suddenly became their lookout and we luckily only had minor damage to an ATV from the flame front and nobody was hurt.
