Fish Creek burnout operation on Robert Fire, Glacier National Park
In fighting large fires it is sometimes necessary to burn fuel between an anchor point, such as a road, fireline, river or lake, and the main fire to prevent further spreading. On the Robert Fire, the Fish Creek burnout was one used to provide containment.
