| Name | Cynthia H |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | This is my 4th ever. One in Alaska in early 90’s, one in South Dakota between 2005-2010, and one in Wyoming (really big) a few years ago. This one was shorter in duration it seems or at least the view was partially obstructed through the trees as it burnt out - the other three I happened to be in wide open spaces. I always make a wish. |
