S-390 in AZ

Most of the crew and I are headed out to Prescott, AZ for the Arizona Wildland Fire Academy this week. I'll be taking S-390, Introduction to Fire Behavior Calculations, and a one day sand table training course. I've been trying to take S-390 for a while so I'll be glad to get it out of the way. We started driving at 2030 last night and caught the sunrise in NM. There was even a little snow to break up the monotony!

Burning at Fort Chaffee

Just finished up a great burn run. We implemented 2800 acres, including 2200 acres at Fort Chaffee. I had the opportunity to lead all five of the Chaffee burns which was a great experience. We've got a contract to burn 5300 acres at Ft. Chaffee so we're close to half way way there!
