A Dalton Hotshot firefighter clears a three foot (90cm) line down to bare soil around an errant fire that has jumped the fire break. Much of the dangerous work is performed by elite ground crews in steep terrain with 55 lb. (25 kg) packs, 25 lb.(11 kg) chainsaws, shovels and rakes, and two gallons (3.78 l) of water for a ten hour shift.
