Fires in this area usually have a pretty decent oil field road network to work with. They may run for a bit but are usually picked up by su down. Notice I say “usually”…decent grass crop this year.

I think you pretty much summed it up about the fire in the Oil fields area. Been on a few in that area. Lot of feed this year compared to years past. Thanks for the insight. Always nice and warm there this time of year.
