Photos by Kari Greer of the Happy Camp Complex

Happy Camp Complex, Klamath NF, CA, 2014

These photos of the Happy Camp Complex of fires were taken by Kari Greer for the U.S. Forest Service August 24 through 26. As you can see, she is one of the best fire photographers around. More of her work is available at Smugmug. Ms. Greer is under contract to the National Interagency Fire Center and carries a Red Card so that she can get right in the midst of the action. She left the Happy Camp Complex a few days ago, but just received a new order to return. At the 20-year commemoration of the South Canyon Fire in July, she found herself on the OTHER end of a camera lens.

The fire has burned about 77,000 acres in northwest California and is listed at 19 percent containment. It is being fought by 91 hand crews, 13 helicopters, 93 engines, 21 dozers, 44 water tenders, 29 mules, and 8 horses.Happy Camp Complex, Klamath NF, CA, 2014 Happy Camp Complex, Klamath NF, CA, 2014 Happy Camp Complex, Klamath NF, CA, 2014 Happy Camp Complex, Klamath NF, CA, 2014
