I live in this war zone. The fire came within 1500 feet of my home. The tireless efforts of these brave heroes, especially our local volunteer departments, prevented our whole valley from being engulfed in flames. From the firefighters I talked to, they said they had never seen anything like this, they were doing all they could just to save structures while the fire swept on by. Sadly over 900 homes lost and counting, we are a close knit community so this was a very special fire fight for the valley departments, they were doing all they could to save the memories of friends and family. They came with all they had, the state fell short in that the resources were spread so thin. Sadly much of the beautiful wooded hillsides are chard and so many structures lay in ash. Kudos to all that participated, wish I could have been along side to help fight this beast. Right now off in the distance the helicopters continue to fly, the fight goes on.

That is an insane number of trucks arriving in one place. I've been both an urban and rural volunteer fire fighter in Australia for 8 years. I responded to one of the Black Saturday fires (In the state of Victoria) we had. Even we didn't see that many trucks arrive all at once. Incredible.

Reminds me of when a local city near me had there town square catch fire. They dispatched 30 fire departments some over 30 miles away and from the neighboring state. All you heard was sirens roaring from every direction as lines of fire engines came roaring into the city from both the west south and east sides

Thank you for this!!! Amazing responses by these heroes!

Thanks to the cowboy in the beginning for stopping traffic

NICE!!! This is going into my Favorite Firetrucks folder!!

Love the thumbnail and some great clean night shots!

glad to see there's not much smoke in Boulder creek

Thanks for the video, and Thanks to all the first responders! Hope yall get it under control!

Awesome recording bud 👌👍👏

Looks like we got us a convoy!🚒

I work at the animal shelter in SMC, we're taking in a lot of animals.

remind me of our fire last year gives me chills hearing sirens still that is when the fire was coming towards town and evacuation was taking place. good video the guy in hat is most likely apart of the fire dept. or he's a CERT member helping with evacuations too.

awesome catches.

thank u for that u r doing for us we appreciated all that u have dun for us in this community and with this fire and plz be safe out there in the fire u guys are awesome and rock

This is pretty tough to watch. I just lived two blocks behind the Boulder Creek fire station for years and years as a kid and went to high school in Felton. Hate to see what is happening there.

You know it's real authentic when the dozer is brought in

Got the whole gang from the Village People in that intersection. Cop, cowboy, construction worker...

Would love to come out there and help out. Don’t see much brush fires out here in NY.

Holy shit, wicked air horns on that first clip. Love the random cowboy putting in work, lol!

We had a bad wildfire season in wnc back in 2016 we don’t even have a fire season but we had multiple t seemed like every week a new one started we had alot of guys come in from out west and can’t thank them enough not saying we couldn’t have put them out ourselves but we greatly appreciated their assistance and expertise but that year hearing sirens was always worrying. We had 2 fires within about 15 miles of our neighborhood on each side which wasn’t concerning at the time but I live on an embankment and I was woken up by a ton of sirens and my heart sank and when I went outside there was 20 fire trucks parked right out front we had a fire start less than a mile from my house luckily they put it out not long after it had started

It's interesting seeing a volunteer department in CA. Never knew they had volunteers over there.

Strike Teams. They do have some nice fire equipment in California; I give em' that.

This gives me flashbacks of the Carr Fire

Do you have any of the Texas crews that are out there?
