400,000 acres? I feel sorry for him!
My paying job is being the Fire chief in Garden City and I can say that NOTHING sucks worse than big wildfires! Small ones are fun and big ones are horrible. It's like digging an endless ditch for a living.
It's hotter than Hades, exhausting like no man can describe, and quite dangerous at times.
Those guys and gals up on the dollar ridge fire (and other fires) are earning every penny of their pay and I hope for their safety and well being.
