The Rim Fire near Yosemite National Park in California's majestic Sierra Nevada mountains drew aerial firefighting resources from a variety of civilian and government sources. Ride along in a California Army National Guard UH-60 Blackhawk as it scoops from a mountain lake and releases water over the fire's edges on 21 August 2013.
