Centennial, CO Brush Fire 6/28/13

[Guest]

Around 9 am South Metro & Cunningham Firefighters were dispatched to a vegetation fire started by fireworks in the 6600 block of South Dunkirk.  I was nearby and could see smoke in the air.  I arrived just ahead of Cunningham Engine & Brush 62 and found about 2 acres involved, burning at a slow rate of spread.  There was no driving access for the brush trucks because of a marsh between the road and the fire.  A progressive hose lay was used to start a direct attack.

 

The crew from 62 pulls their first section of line

I think he was trying to get his gloves on
