Controlled Burn at Farm House Near Sandy Hook, WI


A controlled fire southeast of Sandy Hook, Wisconsin brought in several area fire departments in addition to people investigating the tower of smoke. The home was purposely set on fire while crews practiced various spraying methods of containment, then allowed the structure to completely burn. A portion of the second story of the old farmhouse can be seen falling on the left. This is yet another example of keeping a camera with you especially as you tour the 42N latitude.

  2. I miss my now-broken camera so much--Every day, I find many photo ops. Fingers are crossed for a new camera some time in the next couple of weeks.

    1. At first we tought this was an actual house fire but when you look at the site in this and the hundred or so photos that I took of the fire you can see it was a well attended controlled burn. By all means get your camera, carry with you at all times and blog away!
