    I did a little bit of wildland firefighting when I was on a VFD a few years back here in East Texas. That was some of the hardest work I have ever done. But it was a BLAST! Great video and once again you were out shined by the Mrs.
    God Bless.

    Brings back some great memories from 20+ years ago. Great looking gear. Much of it looks similar but there's a few smart technological changes like that shirt collar. Of course it sounds more regulated then we had back then too. Thank you for the great video and the fond memories of those adventurous days.

  • @mcdsdaddy

    That's a lot of gear to carry around! Thank you for this series. I always here about the firefighters putting wildland fires out here in Colorado, but have never understood how they do it. Now I have a better understanding!

  • @greymanzink6118
    @greymanzink6118 10 ปีที่แล้ว

    I never fought wild land fires, but I have fought grass, brush and lower forest fires. Along with structure fires. But, that was back quite a few years ago. Hot nasty work, but, I loved it. Now my son carries on as a professional ff/pm for the city of Houston. W did get to fight a brush fire side by side, when he was younger. I think that was when he got the call. Kudos, Cody.

  • @lifelearner84
    @lifelearner84 10 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I absolutely love seeing these videos, I'm a beginning firefighter in my community but we don't see brush or wild land fires the size that you do, so seeing these vids is great. Would love to see more of your regular bunker/turnout gear too, maybe some philosophy on your setup. Thanks for sharing!

    Never had a problem with the Wells Lamont leather gloves leather itself but the stitching does explode quite quickly. Last pair blew out on the index about 45 minutes into our last fire down here, wish I could find some of the heavy duty ones you are talking about on the video. Great job as alwase!

    Memories of fighting bushfires in Belize CA. Given that at that time we were the only professional firefighters south of Mexico City we had our work cut out. If had reached the Bomb dump we would have lost half the country! No back up, nowhere to run and nowhere to hide! Boy I miss it!

  • @danofiremano
    @danofiremano 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    For 8 years I have done both types and I'm Wildland trained as well. Also since then I have been using leather gloves when I work with fire when I'm camping, hiking or bushcrafting.

    Great video you two! As a retired full time FF and a current hazard tree faller for Cal Fire it is good to see a video of your loadout. The pants are ancient but if that is what your department issues then so be it. I'd bet there is a bandana in your shirt pocket along with the sharpie. Remember the 19 and support the Wildland Firefighter Foundation. Bill

    As mentioned in another video comment...spending a couple seasons working fires for the USFS in the late '80's were some memorable times. The equipment remains the same presumably since it works....save the fire shelter which the effectiveness depends on so many factors. Thanks for the enjoyable video. Keep up the good work.

  • @mikebox
    @mikebox 10 ปีที่แล้ว

    I rememebr getting issued all this kit once when being sent to Montana, back in my Army Days, to fight a wildland fire. we use that white pouch you carry your canteen in to carry our fire shelters. That was some scary training. The pictures fo crews who were over ran by fires is just awful. Thanks for posting, and nice to see your layout. I have myself one fo the Hot Shot Load out rigs from Mystery Ranch. Talk a bout a nice piece of kit.
    Correction we had a small canteen in that pouch. It's been over 25 years ago. the training took a week or more I beleive, and was scary like i said. I would rather be sent to a war zone, fire are more unpredictable.

  • @MrShack2011
    @MrShack2011 10 ปีที่แล้ว

    Very helpful, for clothing, and glad to have had a glance at those boots. Being I live in MN. I will have to pay a visit to old Adam down there. About the gloves, I couldnt find real good ones either, so, I bought welding gloves. A bit stiff at first and big, but, if ya ever need them, you'll be happy you have them.
    Is FSS gear and tools available to the public?
    My wife used to tease me about my tan. I only have to "think" about the sun and I'm brown. She always said I part Indian. Well, lo and behold, I am. Native AND Swedish. I was adopted as an infant and didnt find out until about 4-5 years ago. Blessings to you and yours, and still praying for that special someone for God to place in your lives.

    They probably want an incandescent light because they are on the red spectrum which has much better penetration through things like smoke as opposed to the blue spectrum light from LEDs that diffuses much quicker.

    @parkbrat5865 10 ปีที่แล้ว

    I ended up with two 2nd generation shelters after my years in wildland fire. 8yrs later I was at a estate sale in central Oregon and on the wall was a red FSS 14day pack and a yellow FSS. I asked how much for both, man said $8 bucks but when I opened them up I found two more shelters inside the packs. I told the man what I found and he said "if you know what they are you can have them for free"

    Would it be better for your home rig to be mounted on a trailer? Have everything setup parked next to the water tower for quick hookup and deployment. A good cover on the pump or mount it inside an enclosure.
    Also would it be a good idea to pickup the 275 gallon tote pallets to stage water storage around the property that dosnt have water to refill at?

    Cody, something you may want to look into is the fire retardant Underarmour shirts. yes i know the original will melt but as a result of the IEDs in Iraq we had to stop wearing them since they melted and , as you said, create a melted gooey 3rd degree burn. so some companies went out and made some that will still help cool you but dont melt under the high heat.

Hot is not an adequate description. Cody, did I hear you say you were out of Bend? Cool...I was a Smokejumper out of Redmond in '83.
