Last I heard this fire is nowhere near Lower Bear Reservoir, which is south of Hwy 88, east of Pioneer. Please check your source and revise your post if need be.

Huh? The Armstrong Lookout cams are looking north. Bear Reservoir is south. Div W is at the heel of the fire in the area of Omo Ranch. The fire activity in Div W is visible on the Omo Ranch Rd 1 cam.

Ok, it’s the pie effect on divisions. Activity might be in Div W, but Div W does not extend out that far (yet

The letters “Div W” are on the map near Bear Resivor. The actual fires edge in Div W is much farther west.
