Forestry Gear of a Wildland Firefighter
This scene shows a wildland firefighter standing near a forest border equipped with wildfire prevention equipment, such as a rubber fire swatter and a portable water backpack. Forestry crews rely on gear designed for rough terrain navigation.
Wildland Fire Smothering and Patrol Methods
Wildland firefighters use fire swatters to smother small surface fires in dry grass and brush by removing oxygen. Portable water backpacks hold several gallons of water, allowing hand crews to douse lingering embers along containment lines. Unlike urban firefighters, wildland crews wear lighter gear designed for long hikes through dense woods.
