    Day In The Life Of A Fire Lookout

    There are some folks we never see at work because of the remote locations where they work.

    A fire lookout on top of Mt. Tamalpais in California's San Francisco area compiled a video of what he sees through the day and night at work.

    After the daily procedural duties, the scenic views are wonderful.

    Very nice!

    I was wondering what the barb wire was supposed to keep out?

    Some beautiful time lapse photography. I hated to see it end.
