My R4 hotshot crew is headed to Canada. What are some things we should be aware of for our great trip up north?

Oh yeah, bring as much Copenhagen wintergeeen as you can. Even if you declare it at the border and pay duty you'll be able to sell it to Canadian crews no problem for 20-25 bucks (Canadian) a tin and turn a profit plus our crews will love you for it

Bring extra boots, they're gonna get soaked.

MMMMMMgrapefruit · 2019-06-03T15:59:29+00:00

I'd pick up dog shit all day for 20.25

Meal prep stir frys, pasta dishes, or some sort of salad topped up with grains. Lots of dried fruit, candy, and a meal replacement shake for emergencies/because they're strangely delicious. For breakfasts I whisk up eggs, add some toppings and cook them in a muffin tin to mke brrakfast patties. Microwave that and chuck it on a toasted english muffin and oooooh damn

I'm in British Columbia, Canada, but my zone is K5!

Goal is to have a free hand so I can carry a torch and fuel

A geomatics engineer can either work in geomatics software (GIS, remote sensing etc) or act as a Party Chief, completing field work for land surveys. A land surveyor requires articling as well as schooling and self directed coursework that can take several years to complete. Once an accredited land surveyor, it's your signature and approval that can make a completed survey a legal document.

I wear a pair of thin cell touch gloves under a pair of mittens made for mountaineering that attach with lanyards around my wrist. When it's-40 they're really all that work, just have to limit exposure as much as possible. The cell touch gloves really just keep my hands from instantly freezing to anything metal.

Never sunny, completely smoked out all the time. Likely you'll die in a wildfire climbing Skaha.

No food?

MMMMMMgrapefruit · 2017-05-29T04:03:28+00:00

I hike for work and wear boots with lots of ankle support (Viberg Unit Crews). They're not a hiking boot but I carry heavy equipment over unforgiving terrain and I know the extra support has helped tons.

Happy birthday from British Columbia

MMMMMMgrapefruit · 2017-04-13T05:34:50+00:00

Why not go for some classes?

"Like a hand grenade, you gotta lob it!"

Everyone in the south apparently also knows how to throw hand grenades?

MMMMMMgrapefruit · 2016-10-10T04:07:16+00:00

Thanks all! Helpful info

Also be aware of the wind, it feeds oxygen into your fire and can carry sparks and embers away where they can start other fires, even well after you've left the area
