Good shot of it chewing up the ridge above Bennett creek.
I remember that fire too, Firedude. it happened a week before the 87 Fire Seige that landed me on the Stanislaus for 6 weeks.
A look at Coffee Pot last night from the valley floor near Exeter from SR 198 as the Super Moon rises… (photo from a friend).

The link to the IAP hasn’t updated I’m guessing?
1,653 acres
Acreage this morning Aug.26th = 3434 +1781 since 5 days ago.
5 copters on the fire this afternoon.
Noted this morning by FireWatch 51:
Intense fire were detected along the edges of the perimeter of the fire.
Isolated fires were generally within fairly close proximity to the main perimeters.
The 27th there were aerial fire ignition in Div.H and Branch 30. I haven’t looked at map to see the locations. However, there is good smoke production today.
Can confirm, a good friend of mine on an IHC mentioned the next few days will include lots of ignitions to fill in the box
You would think if ignition were going well some sort of containment would show? 1-3% any info?
