The self-supporting Pumpkin Tank is easy to fill using nearby water sources and, in remote areas, the Pumpkin Tank can be filled by pumping water in from natural sources such as streams and lakes or via helicopters using Bambi Buckets. Aerial Application When access to water supply is otherwise limited, pilots that are heli-bucketing can quickly fill their buckets from a Pumpkin Tank and proceed to the fire site. The Pumpkin Tank can be replenished with water while the pilot ferries between the water source and the fire site, thereby maximizing valuable helicopter time.
