New Wyoming Hotshots Shows Their Heroic 2020 Wildfire Battles

The summer of 2020 saw a historic number of wildfires across the west. The Wyoming Hotshots were in the middle of many of those battles as this new video shows.

Shannon Sullivan shared this on YouTube today. It's the Wyoming Hotshots 2020 season.

In the video, it lists the wildfires that the Wyoming Hotshots were in the middle of. Here's the jaw-dropping list:

Post Creek, Wyoming
Little Book Cliff, Colorado
Lost Creek, Colorado
Trapper Creek, Wyoming
Sunset, Wyoming
Buffalo, Montana
Beaver Creek, Wyoming
Pine Gulch, Colorado
Cameron Peak, Colorado
Lewstone, Colorado
Brush Creek, Oregon
Holiday Farm, Oregon

That's a lot of fires. As the USDA site mentions, the Wyoming Hotshots dates back to 1967. Let's hope that we never see another summer of fires like we've seen in 2020. The danger these guys put themselves in the middle of shows they are the real heroes we should be saluting and emulating.
