I’m thinkin we are looking at a firing operation from the Sage Webcam. Notice vehicles out running around and some evenly spaced hotspots at the bottom of on canyon about one third of the way from the right side of the frame.

Any pending orders for this monster? Type 1 or type 3 strike teams. Not to familiar with that area or how close homes or communities are.
As long as it stays south of Doyle and north of Red Rock there’s not much for structure protection just a ranch here and there. Plus the fuel type changes to high desert. Sage brush and grass.
