Fuels Management, Drip TorchesIn this photo firefighters are preparing drip torches to be used in a fuels management project. 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.
