Storm King Mountain

Storm King Mountain, a rocky beautiful mountain in Colorado was the site of 14 firefighter fatalities on July 6 1994. The men and women that perished were caught by the raging fire trying to out run it. A couple of the firefighters attempted to deploy shelters which were of no use to them. The fire was just too hot to survive with or without a shelter. A book call "Fire on the Mountain" details the events and lives of the firefighters that battled the South Canyon Fire that took place on Storm King Mountain and does a good job investigating the fire, I reccomend reading it.
