CaveFire photos out of Santa Barbara show flames that forced evacuations, cut power and threaten homes
Photos of the Cave Fire in Santa Barbara, California, showed the reality of the devastation after the blaze left residents without power and forced others from their homes.
Santa Barbara County Fire Department Public Information Officer Mike Eliason posted multiple photos of the firefighters' efforts to his Twitter page. Some images showed the flames burning through land on the hills of the Los Padres National Forest, while others gave people a glimpse into the life of a firefighter.
"We understand that our bodies are going to get beat up. There's a chance of becoming maimed, badly scarred or not making it. It's one of those things that we took on," Douglas Dolezel, a bulldozer operator for the Sacramento Fire District, told."But when the end comes and you've saved somebody's house or saved someone's farmland or helped a citizen, that's what it really comes down to. It's just about helping your fellow human.
