Firefighters Return from Little Giant Fire | Seattle News
Description
Three Central Pierce Fire & Rescue firefighters return home after two grueling weeks battling the Little Giant Fire — now Chelan County’s largest wildfire ever, burning over 140,000 acres since July 15. Through 14 punishing night shifts, they protected homes, smothered hot spots, and battled a lightning-sparked blaze still only 15% contained. With 30 structures lost and more under threat, their heroic efforts — joined by the Washington National Guard and CAL FIRE — echo the scale of the 1994 Tyee Creek Fire. Their resilience and lessons learned will strengthen their home district’s readiness for future wildfires.
