    I ran a D7G for FireCat ops in Cali back in the 1980's - UNForgettable!! Beats pushing rock or scrapers all day!

    hat tip to these guys...and RIP to the two dozer drivers lost in recent CA fires.

    You picked a good line and drove it like a champ! CATskinners squash fires real good.

    I am not going to make some dumb comment about how I THINK it should be done because I know nothing about fire fighting with a bulldozer. But I will say it looks awesome keep up the good work!

    I retired from the fire service a few years back and I never did like wildland firefighting. Interesting video though, enjoy seeing an experienced operator doing his thing.
  • This fire was a very small no nothing fire. I used this for training for new Operators. The video that shows what happens on most of the Fires in the Dozer is the video named Rancho Fire.

    You Sir are very good at your job! Stay safe.

    Typical not to "bury" fire because it traps heat and embers. Someone would have to come back and open it all up to ensure it was out before leaving. That's just one of the reasons to scrape away from fire.. 2 cent's

    Great footage. Right turn off the tarmac (at start of vid) into the fire line was intense.
  • @357bullfrog9
    My hat is off to anyone willing to ride in a fire and work like that

    Looked like the fire was doing a good job burning up all the dry material that needed to be burned.
