Fire Fighters Narrowly Escape - The "Bridge Fire" In San Gabriel Canyon

https://youtu.be/UPlc9SgzQ8U?si=Eus0Q_R2G64o3u_3

note the very narrow road - hard to turn around

if there were 3 or 4 engines on scene - then they were probably 30
minutes into the fire - at least

anf - amgeles national forest - usfs - united states forest service

that guy with the hoseline right along the berm - that looked really
risky - could be a 200 foot cliff right there

putting the wet stuff on the red stuff - the water - it does nothing -
water application technique - hose flow rate - nozzle flow rate

500 gallons of water on each engine - 4 engines - 2,000 gallons of
water - 100 gpm hose - 20 minutes of water and then no more - anf only
has 3 water tenders iirc - roads are too rugged for big tankers - they
use 2,000 gallon tankers ish
