Multiple wildfires just to the west attracted many helicopters from out of town. Locally based VIH got some action with an S-61 and this Bell 212 which is here returning to do battle carrying a 36 foot long-line and water bucket. You can see the pilot with his head stuck in the bubble window as he checks the bucket is behaving itself.
