The Laguna Hotshots are one of the many hotshot crews fighting the Zaca fire. Hotshots are considered the Green Berets of the fire fighting community because of their ability to attack fires in remote locations. Sometimes they will helicopter in to the middle of a forest only to have to hike out for miles after working 12 hours.

A tip of the helmet from your brothers on the East Coast. For my department a 200 acre brush fire is a big deal, you guys see something 10 times that size all the time. You have our respect-stay safe!
