CA-KRN/LAC-Champagne??

Anybody have any info on the fire between Antelope Valley and Tehachapi? Decent smoke showing on the cameras.

It appears to be in a wind turbine farm. That’ll prove difficult for tankers.

It does appear to be running through the windmills.
I believe this is in KRN and it is named the Champagne Fire.

Its Kern County - Going onto the BLM land - first due engine is out of Rosamond with about 30-40 min response time. Currently 2 tankers (76 and 78) on scene with one type 2 copter (408) and one type 1 (3AC) with two more tankers on order.

It’s the fire version of a Red Bull Racing course.

Great turn around time for the fixed wing. Erickson 101 and 102 joined the show.
