Carla, if you have the misfortune of being caught on a hill with a fire coming up it, the best place to be is where it has already burned, if you can get there safely. I don't recommend being anywhere near a grass or forest fire, up the hill or down. Just as great a danger as being burned is the danger of being suffocated, because big fires take all the oxygen.

Hey Larry,

Me thinks you've got a "bummer" on that one.

It only makes sence that the wind generated in the valley
would push the fire faster uphill as heat is known to rise.

Better luck next time.

All the best, friend.
