I believe that is the east end of things. It was very active in that area yesterday. Just gives a good perspective on size. Looking at previous cams and video I don’t believe that’s a new start, just the east end waking up a bit.

Branch II advising the fire is now well established in the Canyon bottom and will make a hard push up and impact Mile High Rd. No Tankers over the fire at this moment, he advised Ops he would do the best he could, but it was really heating up.
