We can form a right triangle where the distance between the ranger's current position and fire is the hypotenuse of the triangle. In a right triangle, the tangent of an angle is equal to its opposite side divided by the hypotenuse.

Therefore, we have:

$\tan 34^{\circ}=\frac{70}{x}$ , where $x$ is the distance between the base of the tower and the fire.

Solving, we get:

$x=\frac{70}{\tan 34^{\circ}}=103.779267796\approx \boxed{103.78\:\mathrm{ft}}$
