Great pack!!! I've done a lot of line work, in my red card days, but it was mostly little stuff (Just us local guys). On major fires I was always either on structure protection, or I did helli-tac, and a lot of tender duty. Our dept. got a Hawk extreme, and everybody seemed to want to call us for tender duty after that lol. Long story short... Never had to have a line pack, I was always close enough to a truck not to need it, but you have a great one there!!! I'm way too old now :(

[Cr0cket20]

I don't know Beast. Doesn't look like you've used those gloves at all ; ) Interesting point about the 6 liters of water next to the back. Awesome vid. Liked to see the backpacking/firefighting aspect of how/what you packed you bag with.

[USNERDOC]

Excellent video and a well done intro to your wildland pack. I am always looking for new ideas, gear and systems. Thanks for sharing!

[wawhiker]

Pro gear - great to see - Pro. Thanks for sharing it with us.

[Druetty]

Great vid! Nice to see what you guys carry. Thanks so much for the important work you are doing!!

[CyberCacique1]

Greatness, as usual. Always gets me thinking about my own prep systems. Thanks man!

[fierfox121]

I just got back from dropping off my bag and nomex at my bosses place. Were already talking about next season! Hoping to get together in February to get our refresher done and then packtest early March! Im really looking at all my options this year including forest service handcrew or engine. We will see what happens. You going to go hand crew again?

[Tancrad]

is that pack issued to you, it looks pretty sweet

[Killahofosho]

that's a nice pack i keep checking back to see if there are more posts to this vid!

[CampfireTalk]

Good to see how your background of backpacking came into play here. These loadouts boil down to having some resources on hand in whatever scenario we may go into. Great job beast!

[bfd210]

good vid bro!

[hinckleypoland]

Very cool Beast. Thanks for sharing your load out. Stay safe!

[spsmith1965]

Very nice. Good ideas here.

[TheGrayman1234]

How do you get the rubbery taste out of your hydration pack? What type of hydration pack do you have and what are the pros and cons that you have come across with the hydration pack?

Had a grass fire the other day and thought of you. It was a little one, only a couple of 100 square feet. Nothing line what you guys deal with. You the man beast, you smoke eater you.

[beast12101]

@TheGrayman1234 the newer camelbak didnt really have any taste to it, the only down side is its hard to fill while in your pack

[gryphon50]

you wouldn't be able to find out what boots failed would you?

[beast12101]

@gryphon50 they were georgia boot company

[gryphon50]

Jeez, your vids are good. Lots of great information. You always let us know what's fact and what's opinion, and what hasn't been used. Keep up the great work.

Stay safe.

[UStacticalmedic36]

Looks like a contract engine? Never heard of that pack before looks nice, And for the gloves i run the same kind of gloves just because the Forest service gloves they give us suck ass, And i also run a notebook just like that in my radio chest rig.

[beast12101]

@UStacticalmedic36 mostly contract hand crew, did some engine work, too boring ;)

[51foxy]

Very good video buddy.

paul. uk.

[markshmily]

Great kit dude! Really interesting items.

I never would have thought about adding screws to your kit to hold your shoes together. Seems like even one or two might be good just to get ya home.

Thanks for the video. =D

[AppalachianFreedom]

Even though we are on the other end of the Country, thank you for serving Sir!

[Fenianboyo]

I always enjoy your vids man, and pack vids in general. You never fail to get ideas for things you never quite considered! Well done!

[punkboy198]

FINALLY! I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR MORE WILDLAND VIDEOS!

[TheSonofthunder7]

I never have thought about a fire line bag, even as a civilian it may be a good thing to do. Thanks for the info.
