AZ8 Report post Posted October 5, 2014 Incredible story! Another fire crew having to deploy their fire shelters after being overcome by a crown fire. Barely a year after we lost 19 at Yarnell. But this story has a miracle ending. That helicopter pilot is a hero! http://www.verticalmag.com/news/article/1600YardstoFreedom 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

firstcoueswas80 Report post Posted October 5, 2014 Between Remembering what happened last year, and my best friend being a and lands fire fighter, that courageous tale brought a tear to my eye. What a event! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest wdenike Report post Posted October 5, 2014 Glad it all ended well. I have three out of four girls directly involved with the first responders. And the Yarnell 19 hit way to hard for our family. Sure glad others didn't have to go through it. Take care, Willie Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

azslim Report post Posted October 6, 2014 Glad of the outcome from this one. We still lost people this year, happens every year. Last year the total was 34, Granite Mtn was the worst incident. Our fire crews earn their money. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
