Those "little red things every 500 feet" sure can make life easier sometimes!

Nice pics! Any more of the fully involved structure? Was everyone OK, no injuries or casualties, right?

I had a few, but not interesting / that showed anything. Everything was already flat on the ground by the time the first engine arrived, over a mile up a dead-end road and was found by a UPS driver who reported flames through the roof.

Was used as a hunting cabin on weekends, no one home.

The Bombardiers are really cool. I believe the model name is a "J-5 Muskeg." Pretty much put the modern Polaris Ranger / Kawasaki Mule / etc UTVs to shame :) With the tracks the can go over real soft ground with digging in as long as you go easy on the turns.

Here's a pic from Wikipedia to drool over:
