Video of Miller Fire on CDT in New Mexico

The Forest Service shot this video from a helicopter of the Miller Fire that is burning near the Gila Wilderness in New Mexico.  Apparently, the fire has been going on for a few weeks, and now over 300 personnel are fighting the fire.  A new fire, called the Sheep Fire also broke out north of Silver City, but appears to be small.  Northbound CDT hikers are being directed to go around the fire.

Fire on the PCT - Alcohol Stove Safety

I shot this video last Thanksgiving at the Mosley Manor up in Milwaukie, Oregon.  I focused on being careful with fire on the Pacific Crest Trail, especially in light of the fact that there have been three fires in the last five years started by hikers who mishandled their alcohol stoves.  I presented this video at the ADZPCTKO Video Shorts Festival.  So, this is for all you hikers out there who missed the Kickoff.  Enjoy!
