Lisa Acton replied to jgirl0809's discussion 'do you think you are at a disadvantage due to height/weight when you are working a fire?' in the group Women In the Dept.

sometimes i think a little height for leverage, but the advantage is that we can fit into some places the men can't! Also when you need a low profile to fit in tight spaces i can ussually fit with out taking off my pack. The guys can't.
