130F hot enough for ya?

If you haven't been to Yuma recently you would be blown away. It's a big city nowadays.





I'm fine from 55-85. Anything outside of that is miserable. With my job we get the extremes. Sometimes you're camping on a mountain top at 10,000 ft freezing your balls off and others you're hiking up canyon walls in triple digits.
I'm a wildland firefighter so more routinely in hot temps + fire. It's been so hot that our fire helicopters couldn't fly. No lift. Been on fires that have singed my mustache hairs. That's hot!

My son is a hotshot on the Idaho City crew. I dont know how he deals with the heat. When he was young he couldnt stand over 100 and was much happier skiing Alta at -10 .
But he seems to enjoy firefighting. This is his 3rd season. But that will end mext year when he graduates with a chemical engineering degree.
