Forest Service Battles Small Wildfire
October 24, 2013
Firefighters responded to a fire deep in a wooded area off Highway 168 near Wawbeek Road outside Century Thursday morning. The wildfire, estimated at a few acres, was reported to be in area at least half mile north of the highway and inaccessible to firefighters from the Century Station of Escambia Fire Rescue. The Florida Forest Service responded with a bulldozer to reach the fire. There were no structures threatened by the fire. NorthEscambia.com photos, click to enlarge.

Wow. It’s good to know that we have such a skilled fire dept.
Great job, Forest Service firefighters! I was impressed with that operator’s ability on that dozer on hilly terrain.
