Something like this was always my biggest fear during my years as a wildland firefighter. A whole crew caught and burned over with no survivors. I can't think of a more horrendous way to die. Rest in peace my Brothers

Lived around there for the last 11 years before moving last year. I also saw those guys in Nevada last year when they were on a road-trip to a fire up North.

RIP heroes...thank you for your sacrifices. If there is a Heaven, and I make it there someday, I want it to be full of guys and gals like this. If not, I shall go elsewhere...

Indeed, really really sad. I hope there's a heaven for those guys. They deserve it.
RIP

Prayers for their families...folks like this are inspiring in so many ways, they willingly put themselves at risk so "that others may live". God speed Granite Mountain Hot Shots.....
