I have not been in South Carolina in years but I just returned from visiting North Carolina which adjoins South Carolina on the north. To digress a moment, I was in North Carolina visiting some good friends and we took a trip to the western part of the State on Monday to watch the total eclipse. I don't normally write a travel log on this blog, but I will share about my trip with some photos (not of the eclipse) in a couple of days.
In the meantime, I wanted to get back to our regularly scheduled programming, so to speak, and hope that you enjoy this video about some wildland firefighters working wildfires in the Andrew Pickens Ranger District, Sumter National Forest in South Carolina in the Spring of 2017. Enjoy.

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.
