5483989 prescribed fire A prescribed fire burns on the edge of a longleaf pine tree stand. 
5475576 prescribed fire A forest service employee works on a prescribed fire with a driptorch. The driptorch consists of a canister for holding fuel with a handle attached to the side, a spout with a loop to prevent fire from entering the fuel canister, a breather valve to allow air into the canister while fuel is exiting through the spout, and a wick from which flaming fuel is dropped to the ground. The wick is ignited and allows the fire to be directed as needed.
