not sure how many they typically launch with but Jumper 42 returning to Redding, 10 jumpers on board that must have won (or lost?) the rock paper scissors.

May have been too many shadows or insufficient light for a safe jump
40 acres in steep terrain (brush, timber, grass), 30% contained.

There are multiple unlined spots across slate Creek at the bottom of the drainage. It’s very inaccessible, But with the aircraft hitting it hard this morning and hot shots hiking in, It’ll either be out by tonight or go major.
