For the past several weeks, my little brother has been in Arizona fighting the Horseshoe 2 Wildfire in the very southeast corner of Arizona bordering Mexico. That is not my brother in the pictures, for the record, but it is the same fire. He worked the graveyard shift and then slept during the day in a school gymnasium. Though these pictures are not him, this is the same work he's been doing. A lot of steep grade uphill climbing in super hot temperatures, digging, starting fires to stop fires, cutting trees, etc. He's coming home this week, though, so perhaps we'll find out more!
