CA-KNF-McKinney?

Any info on the China Fire?
Will there be a separate thread now that
Team 10 has it and it’s not part of the McKinney?

New video/virtual tour of McKinney Fire is up on YouTube, showing current mapping as of about 10:30am on 8/2/2022. Also, I talk about ‘big-box firefighting’ or the difference between direct and in-direct attack, fire history, and fuels management.

NOTE: There is a glitch in the livestream (I’m a rookie), so once the audio ends, jump ahead to 16:40 for coverage of the China, Shackleford, and Kelsey Fires.

A friend sent a msg saying as they were wrapping up their shift in Div P, in 2014 Beaver Fire scar on NW quarter of the fire, a massive rainstorm about washed them off the mountain, caused a landslide. Anyone have video of this I can use? If so, send it to wildland.zko at gmail.com or email me for a Dropbox link. All submissions kept confidential.

Interactive ArcGIS map of McKinney Damage Assessment. Very useful for accurate information on structures impacted by this fire.
