Abstract: The present invention relates to brushfire fighting equipment and more particularly to a portable brushfire hydrant which can be easily stored and maintained in a condition for immediate use by an individual homeowner to protect his life and property from brushfire damage. In the past, individual home- owners could only utilize the commonly available garden hose which, of course, is grossly inadequate for the purpose or if a self-contained engine driven auxillary pump is available, it is usually not maintained or stored with all the accessory equipment necessary for the immediate and effective use in such fire fighting emergencies. The present invention successfully overcomes these deficiencies by providing a completely portable brushfire hydrant which has an open frame on which a high pressure pump can be securely mounted with all the accessories necessary conveniently disposed in a tightly compact storage condition on the frame for connection to and immediate use with the pump on a moment's notice.
