A big thanks to those in this video, and elsewhere. Took me a lot of nerve just to take the basic course and I don't think I'd ever try the whole deal. And not that this doesn't look hellish, but you should see some of the video people took after Mount St. Helens blew.

I remember this fire... area is only 10 miles from my house, and the wind blows from the 15 following Hwy 138 west. So we get a tad worried when we see tons of smoke from that area!
