Two Grayback crews visited the Wildland Firefighter Foundation this fall to honor those we've lost and reflect on the important and often dangerous work we do. Thank you, WFF, for all you do to support wildland firefighters and their families.
The purpose of life is to live it, to taste experience to the utmost, to reach out eagerly and without fear for newer and richer experience.
