There were a couple of small ones in that are (50 acres or less) back in I think 2010-2011 that I was on but you are right, nothing big. Lots of build up in there.

Like any fire in this state, it’s a mix of everything. The two river canyons are handcrew only though, for the most part. Not a lot of roads in there.

Kind of surprised I haven’t seen many dozer requests. Maybe going direct to south oops

smoke 12,
I’m sure the IC is ordering what they need, through the appropriate channels. Individual dozer orders would be placed through the unified ordering point (Mariposa) and filled as appropriate.

A lot of dozers were ordered early yesterday and overnight more.

Also, recognize that as Team 6 enters into the picture, they will be going directly to South Ops and unless there is a request coming into the CP from a Div or Branch, there will be nothing to hear as those orders will be through direct channels

Team requests don’t go direct to the GACC. They go through the local expanded dispatch.

Heard the announcement, is it CalFire wide? South Ops? or just MMU?

“CSR” means it based out of SoOps, regionwide, although there may be specific requests for some units, within the framework of the orders. Usually a single unit "hold all personnel " is on an order from that unit, so in this case starting with MMU.
If it is CA-CSR-36-04 Hold all personnel on duty, then that means all CSR units. These are created when there is a fire or two and if there is a CF team order so they can fill the open requests before letting personnel sneak off. There is usually a staff all ECC’s as necessary in there too. And a few more

Around 1500 there were conversations with Branch 1,2,3 for getting folks lined out onto Road 600 for the “plan”. VIIRS on Caltopo has heat right up along the road 600 already along SE flank. Stepped away after that.
Map 3 hours old.
