[QUOTE="Powerman620, post: 2501955, member: 6567"] I have some pictures of some oaks going up on a wildfire I was on a couple years ago. I was on an engine on structure protection across highway from fire line waiting on fire. Trees were around 30 to 40 feet tall and had green leaves on them. When fire line hit them in the same conditions as today, they exploded and had flames shooting around 80 feet in air. If it weren't for being on a highway and having around 200 feet of pavement and short grass, I would not have been in fire line. My job was to turn fire from house and let it keep going, not to try and put out which was all but impossible. [/QUOTE]
