Currently, at least cams:

Idyllwild 1
IC has ordered 15 additional type 3’s and 1 LAT. Bautista Camp is not currently threatened. Currently 5 Tankers working the fire.
She is building nicely:
AA -12 stated 50 plus acres.
75 acres with spotting. Additional resources being ordered.
High Point Cam has a good view from Palomar Mtn area. http://www.alertwildfire.org/sdge/index.html
IC also ordered 8 additional Crews.
All fixed wing will be off the fire in 15 minutes. It does not look like this will be caught tonight. AA is ordering a night time copter and AA51 for the night.
Is this fire BDF or RRU?
I believe RRU but it is close to the Forest. It may be unified but I can’t confirm yet.
BDF appears to be the ordering point
Makes sense if they’re ordering AA51…
From where the aircraft are currently working, it is on the BDF now at least, now where the origin is, could be SRA.
Does anyone have the frequencies being used?
Check the BDF wildcad
