Any updates on the fire? Have friends that live near the fire…
Is it moving towards LPF?
Long, way to the LPF
I posted my question on the Carmel Fire and they are ending up here… Weird…
River fire has almost progressed down to Gonzales river road.
With how steep the terrain is I wouldn’t be suprised they build the box all the way down to arroyo Seco road.
Unless they can skirt dozers along the top of the mount and dive off a long ridge. Either it spotted a couple miles Past delta or just took off underneath the heavy smoke and AT and ground resources couldn’t see it. I would venture a guess it spotted across their 8 blade wide contingency line a couple miles north of limekiln

I think these two fires will merge in the south and head up East Carmel Valley. Air visability is poor and air support is limited. Resources are competitive making more aggressive firing operations harder to justify. As TK5710 mentioned, the dozer line can’t hold the spotting with topo and diurnal wind alignment. I agree that the box and outcome will end up being Arroyo Seco.
Throw the Dolan into the mix and you have the makings of a long term mega fire.
Yes. That’s what we are thinking.

It’s not a real cluster until you’re putting out spot fires under the Finance Trailer.
