🔥'Tis the season! Some agricultural burns are already being carried 'out of control' due to PM winds (like this one in Summit County on Monday). 📸@NorthSummitFire | @UtahWildfire
EARLY season wildfire stats via @UtahWildfire: 'Human-caused' fires account for 17 of the 20 reported wildfires so far in 2024.

1️⃣ Drown: Pour lots of water all over the campfire, drowning all embers. 2️⃣ Stir: Using a shovel, stir dirt or sand into the embers. 3️⃣ Drown: Pour more water over the campfire until cool. 4️⃣ Feel: Hovering your hand over the embers, feel for any remaining heat.
Bust a move and practice proper wildfire prevention techniques 🕺 🎶 🪩 #DrownStirDrownFeel when extinguishing your campfire. #OnlyYou

To kick off #WomensHistoryMonth, a quick history lesson on the @forestservice's first female fire lookout, Hallie M. Daggett! Pictured here, Daggett worked at Eddy's Gulch Lookout Station, located in Klamath National Forest, for 15 seasons starting in 1913.
Meet the "Next Gen" airtankers (large) - These large aircraft can carry 2,000-4,000 gal. of fire retardant/water, providing extensive coverage to support ground crews. Although their size brings challenges, they are perfect for timber fires since they fly above the forest canopy.
Meet the giants of wildfire suppression: VLATs! These Very Large Airtankers are less nimble but can drop thousands of gal of fire retardant from heights of at least 250 feet. The DC-10 can deliver up to 9,400 gal., while the Boeing 747 can carry 17,500 gal. 📸 NIFC
Meet the SEAT - Single Engine Airtanker - this compact aircraft can deliver ~ 800 gallons of fire retardant/water to a fire. Best used in lighter fuels like grasses& sagebrush, its small size makes it perfect for navigating diverse terrain & extinguishing hotspots 📸 NIFC
It’s a beautiful thing… the 2024 fire season is on its way. @AltaHotshots #wildfire #firefighters
