Sounds like the R flank is priority, steep rocky terrain. I was just up there awhile back. Grass oak woodland with some thicker manzanita.

100 acres, moderate ROS. Good progress on the right flank. Dozers working the head, left flank is backing towards powerhouse rd. Still potential 300. No immediate structure threat.

Fire was holding within the retardant, unfortunately sounds like lots of heat exhaustion, that’s a nasty HOT area when it’s not 115 in Fresno. Hope everything holds and the boots on the ground stay very well hydrated.
