Fuels Management, Terra TorchIn this photo a firefighter is using a Terra Torch to assist with fuels treatment. Because of its range of forty feet a Terra Torch is useful to firefighters who are working in small groups or in steep terrain. Fuels treatments are conducted to reduce fuel loads. Fuel loading can be caused by dead and down trees as well as an overgrown understory. Through fuels treatments firefighters address the problem of excessive ground fuels while using terrain and optimal weather conditions to their advantage. The fuels treatment project captured here took place on the West Desert District in northwestern Utah. This is a 7.7-million-acre district managed by the Bureau of Land Management.
