Firewatch Stories

When Tyler needed an escape from his very busy, fast-paced, overwhelming life in New York City, he jumped at the opportunity to fill in as a fire look out at one of the fire watch towers in Washington State. However, as much as he needed a break from the loud and suffocating life that was filled with expectations in the city, he underestimated the immense solitude and loneliness that came with being a fire look out. Luckily, an unexpected static voice was there to keep him sane. (a short Joshler story!)

It's about a village

Raven Reyes, the 23-years-old beauty from good ol' Chicago has taken a rather odd job on a fire lookout in the wilderness of Wyoming. It struck her eyes in a café she had been visiting for ages and a fresh start felt like a good plan. At least for the summer, just to get away from everything. So, Raven had rushed home with a ripped piece of paper that had a phone number on it. Apparently, the spot wasn't so popular, which meant a positive response for the doe-eyed brunette; she got the job! Long story short, Raven packed up the necessities she had been very vaguely described to bring with her. Water bottle, clothes, some books, her camera, pen and a notebook and sheets were all she could fit inside the pack. The woman on the phone had given Raven an address and told that a two days hike would be ahead of her as she would make her way from the bus stop to the lookout tower. More detailed instructions were to be given on the scene. ON THE WAY WE GO!

Thomas is out of a job. Every application he send to local businesses or major industrial entities gets turned down within an instant of being sent out. He has no other options behind him - but an advertisement in the newspapers catches his eye. A fire-lookout stands to be one of the simplest jobs in his eyes. At $30 per hour, he quite literally gets to enjoy solitude in the middle of the Canadian wilderness, or so he believes.
