With it still being under 24 hours and lack of resources as of yet I would not expect to see an IAP yet,

Is there audio that does not include law enforcement? Only fire traffic?
Well sort of ânewsâ from the Ranch line, what I did hear: itâs only us, (Mad River IHC) + ? Multiple dozers & they are losing⌠just not enough resourcesâŚ
And with new start in LNU, itâs really gonna get tight
Suptwife, Iâm guessing that will be the story for an op period or two. There just arenât any resources nearby this new incident.

Anyone know whatâs pending in Ross?
Thatâs a rare task force indeed. Reminds me of the ârainbowâ strike teams on the â90s.

One of Our ( My) TFâs on the Tubbs fire was 1-T3, 2-T1 and 2-T1tac WT.,
We were pretty much our whole div the first 4 days then we grabbed a Fed T3 and ran 2 little TFâs.
