Alaska Fire 2013

4 blade width dozer line…..rare in the lower 48, even more rare in AK, it really puts a hurt on the tundra/permafrost but when your closer to hwy’s, towns and such they want full suppression at most cost so…….destruction it is , D9 is pushing , a D8 and a D6…..got to love dozers on your line

Holy crap Oli. Mine always rip open long before they get that big.

Those are the hands of a workin' man.

:shock: Holy mother of blister.... did you pop it :twisted:

 

[oli700]

no, the medic said to try to keep it in tact while I was down in the hole.....he said it has the best Band-Aid on it just keep it in tact as long as possible , I had it for about a week until it popped but I just put mole skin and antibiotics on it right away and it didn’t get infected so all good, it was a pain trying to keep it intact though
