Carry the Load
Keeping a Legacy Alive

Yarnell, Arizona. June 30, 2013. 19 firefighters left behind a story of courage and brotherhood, a legacy of sacrifice and honor saving residents and homes from one of the deadliest wildfires in American history.

The single Hotshot survivor who was posted as lookout that day, Brendan McDonough honors his brothers by traveling with the nonprofit organization, Carry the Load. Their mission is to pay tribute to America’s fallen heroes by providing support to the families who have lost loved ones.
Granite Mountain Hotshots, may you rest in peace.
