CA-KRN-Scodie???

Kern first alarm. 3 acres east of Doyle ranch off the 178. MROS with limited access. This area is prone to radio issues so that will be a factor.

Great news is winds are calm and the snow melt has been keeping that particular area of the valley wetter than it typically is.
Winds were 20-25 mph a few hours ago so I would say the timing worked out well for this one.

Line around the fire ended up around 20 acres. There’s lots of large cottonwoods on that property so it will be a lot of mop up.

That’s a lot of resources still on scene for 20 acres. My buddy was saying on top of the large cotton woods there was a bunch of debris from the heavy rains/ flooding earlier this year that accumulated in that area.
