Nice. What fire was that on, and are you wearing an entiat shots shirt?
Ill have to dig up some pics of milk challenges from fire seasons past.
I don't remember what fire that was, my first with the Bushmen, somewhere in SE Oregon outside of Lakeview and like a good n00b was convinced I could crush the 4.4.40.
I was obviously wrong, that's quart #3 in my hands. $600 and the keys to a cherry lime green el camino on the line and I couldn't get r dun.
Ahh, the bushmen. I thought those nomex pants looked a bit old school. Ive never seen anyone pull off the 4-4-40 nor the milk challenge. Fun watching folks try though.
Yeah, they didn't really let us call ourselves the bushmen when I was on the crew, backlash against too many years of caveman cock wrapped hard hats.
I've never seen anyone finish the 4-4-40 or the milk challenge either. I did watch a 6'8" 300# BIA crewmember put the fear of god into us one day tho, we had about 6 grand and a couple sets of keys in the pot and he pounded the first three quarts in under 2 minutes. Poor planning did him in, as he didn't have anyone handing him his quarts and he had to bend over and grab the 4th quart, which immediately led to projectiling. With proper coaching, he's a contender.
Old style 32-34's, pulled from the old bushmen cache during inventory, along with a matching yellow top. The new style stuff was pure evil, designed to make hell unenjoyable.
I'm impressed with your knowledge of IRC shirts.
