What happened
Fast-moving wildfires have been reported along the border region involving Oregon, Idaho, and Nevada. In southeastern Oregon, a military surplus Humvee used by volunteer firefighters was damaged while fighting the late-July Second Flat Fire, which burned over 100,000 acres of range and pine. The North Harney Rangeland Fire Protection Association, staffed largely by ranchers, uses surplus government gear to extend first response capacity to state and federal agencies.
