I’m assuming it is called Point because it is off Stewart’s Point Road. The cross referencing on the cameras seem to support this. I’ve hiked in the that area a little bit and worked a couple of endurance races as a ham. The area is rugged and rough, and it can be deceptive and dry you out very quickly. Anyone heading into that area be sure to stay hydrated.

Where are they stagging? and where is the CP? Dry Creek Rd has a lot of vineyards that should slow the fire some. From what I saw of the map on Watch Duty the fire was still up in the hills west of Healdsburg and South West of Dry Creek Rd. Damn thing seems to be Bi-Polar the way it gets angry, then calms down, then makes another run… There is a creek that runs N-S between the Wallbridge burn scar and Dry creek that looks like it was in part used for the Wallbridge line. I suspect it is beyond that point now, be nice to know.

They had some staging up by the dam. All the structure protection resources were going to Yoakum Bridge and West Dry Creek.
They had a good sized spot on the right flank burning off to the west.

Here’s a view looking NW with the FIRIS perimeter in light blue.
2020 Wallbridge Fire is in blue fill.
Wallbridge dozer lines show up well on the aerial.
I’ve been working mapping fuels in the 2017 Tubbs Fire scar near Mark West Springs. Areas that burned hot there have 12’ tall bay and madrone sprouts, and thick ceanothus, but little in the way of dead fuels or grass in the understory. Live fuel moistures are still up in the brush/sprouts, I’d guess this fire probably won’t push very hard on the flanks, and mainly run with topo and winds.
