T-160 & T-102 northbound from SOPS. Not sure of their destination, but guessing this fire.
VLAT has been diverted from the Badger to the Hog.
Per CalFire, the fire is 261 acres and 5% contained. Looks like they also got a wind shift like the Badger did.
It looks like she woke up early today. The Hamilton Mtn1 cam has the best angle (link up top in the original post). She’s punching through the inversion already.
500 Acres. BTU, and NEU both have sent strike teams
LNU Sent
1 Charlie
1 Lima
1 FF Handcrew
Judging by the fire activity yesterday and early today, coupled with the fuel loading, I would think a team activation is not far off.
MDF (Modoc) Type 3 strike team in route.
SKU Charlie is assigned to the HOG, as well as an AEU Charlie assigned for cover LMU
