Near Nellysford
Nelson County, Virginia
Gusty winds and dry conditions made for a brief, but scary fire early Saturday afternoon just outside of Nellysford on Truslow’s Lane. Fire crews from Wintergreen, Rockfish Valley FD, Faber and VA Dept of Forrester all initially responded to the fire burning in a field not far from the intersection of Berry Hill Road and Truslow’s Lane.
Crews from Rockfish Valley Volunteer Fire Department quickly layout fire hoses to fight Saturday afternoon's fire on January 8, 2011. Crews from this brush truck wade off into the smoke to put out the flames from the brush fire. A Rockfish Valley Fire brush truck is directed in to the fifre Saturday afternoon on Truslow's Lane. A member of The Rockfish Valley Fire Department gets ready to energize the hoses to fight the fire.
In less than 45 minutes the fire was totally under control.
Excellent work from all of the fire crews on the scene!
Hope we haven’t left anyone out that was there helping out. If so, let us know!
