The last time I saw Kari Greer was last year at the 20-year commemoration of the South Canyon Fire in Glenwood Springs, Colorado. We talked for a while, and after comparing camera gear I asked if her camera equipment and her vehicle smell like a forest fire for a while after returning from a fire. She smiled and said that yes, she loved it, and thought that other people who ride in her vehicle like it too.

You gotta appreciate a wildland fire photographer who loves the smell of smoke!

  1. It’s been my experience that TFR’s don’t really mean much to military aviation. In Alaska there are rouge military aircraft all over. I have also been on a helibase in Montana where a random black-hawk came and did a touch-and-go and we had no comms or warning. See and avoid anytime your near a military operations area and even when you’re not… surprise.

  2. In the couple of pics with the A-10 in the background, it doesn’t move compared to the horizon. Maybe the sky crane was conducting ops near an ANG base, with a static display A-10 mounted… Just my thoughts.

  3. Why, yes it is

    Was there a TFR in place? Was there an ATGS in the area?

    If not…oohh nooo “See and Avoid” comes to mind……

    1. Not sure what you guys saw in the video. An A-10 Wart Hog? I did not see it. If I missed some thing critical please enlighten me. It was a good video. It gives the public a good perspective of what wildland FFs do.

    1. Steve, that might be an A-10, I am not sure- that series of shots is from the Waldo Canyon Fire in Colorado Springs and that portable dip site was very near the Air Force Academy. I caught it in the background. The plane is static, a mounted display at the Academy- to answer the thread below.
