Hardly an hour apart and the fireline has already crested the peak of the ridgeline and appears to be spotting down near Triangle Road. Dont take that as fact, that’s just what appears to be happening anyway.

It’s past that area now and and will be playing a factor, right now it’s on Buckingham mountain which is just barely visible at the base of the column.

Watching the three hour loop on Mt. Bullion Camera 1 shows impressive spotting and then consumption of the lee side slopes.

You can see it much further away too from El Dorado County. The fire in the forefront is in Amador County…you can just make out the column of the Oak Fire…at first it looks like clouds.

The heal / origin is showing on Caltopo:
(Usual 3 hour delay for signatures. Also smoke will give some false heat signatures with this size of fire -FYI )

The Ferguson fire was pretty much all on the sierra and Stanislaus national forest except where they held it at highway 41 which isn’t far from the western boundary of the park.
Oak fire is into the Carstens burn now.

Lots of regrowth and a lot of grass in the Ferguson, at least on the Stanislaus

What time was this created? Based on the information from @trishaswcfirewx and what I’m hearing on the scanner the fire is well beyond what your map is showing. It might be good to indicate the time maps are created or when the intel was gathered - particularly when a fire is moving as fast as this one is.
