CA-ENF-Caldor?

This is a rough cross, kinda hard to tell due to the wind carrying it and the cameras not picking up the base. Looks to be interior island, however they have open line just south of there that could also have taken off. Should know in the morning from the IR run.

The fire is backing down to the hand line put in at upper and lower echo.

It looks like since Team 2 arrived they are no longer using the FTP site. The East Side is still using the FTP site. What is the West Side using?

I can see most of the burn in the Tahoe basin from my house. From Christmas Valley to Trimmer Peak. Very little smoke coming off this finger of the fire. Lots of helos going over with full buckets.

Zilch smoke over the entire fire. A good day.

As part of my continuing coverage of the Dixie and Caldor Fires on The Lookout website, I am soliciting video and photos of fire behavior, firefighting tactics, and any other interesting or newsworthy events.

For the Caldor Fire, I’m looking for videos of fire behavior when the fire entered fuel treatments, structure protection, dozers working, and firing operations around structures.

I’ll be using submitted video in wildfire education videos on our Youtube Channel, and also, as source material for articles on The Lookout. No anonymous submissions will be accepted - I need accountability to be able to confirm locations, dates, and times of anything I publish, but we can your identity confidential. By submitting material, you are giving me permission to use your material for commercial use. I’ll give attribution if you want it. Send me a PM for a Dropbox link.
