I have blogged about aerial wildland firefighting since 2009. I am not a firefighter and am not a pilot, just an interested bystander who wants to learn more and share what I learn here. Join me here as I blog on the aircraft and the pilots who fight wildland fires from the air in support of crews on the ground. I also blog on concerns affecting fire crews on the ground as well as other aviation and meteorology issues. Learn what it takes to do jobs that are staffed by the best of the best.

Location for start of 1985 Monroe NJ wildfire
I was able to pinpoint what I think is the approximate location of the start of the wildfire that burned in Monroe Twsp., NJ in 1985. This is noted by the yellow placemarker in the image that I got from Google Earth last night. I want to point out that in 1985 this area was all (or mostly) pine woods. The homes that are there now were not there in 1985. For more information on this fire see yesterday's post.
