These are back to back frames from the Bear Mtn cam. I believe the flames are in the shadow of the water falling.

Really looks like they might be losing structures. The Shasta Lake 2 cam has multiple stationary dark columns that appear might be structures.

Using 334pm IR, fire has stayed north the entirety of Bear Mtn Road and is certainly moving to the WSW with the ENE push we’ve been seeing as the fire gets out of the aligned canyons and more exposed flats.

Fire has crossed west over Old Oregon Trail, between Bear Mtn and Union School Rds. It’s in the Little Acres and Hanna Way area and north. That fits the darker smoke columns seen from the Shasta Lake cams just south of Fish Mtn. It’s coming right up to the east side of Old Oregon Trail north of Union School Rd. up to Sunrise.

The right heel of this, NW corner near the quarry is still backing/flanking since it’s sheltered from the ENE wind influence the head is seeing. Air Attack seemed optimistic I5 will be the hold for this piece if not sooner.

Air Attack also now focusing on the Jones Valley side to pretreat ridges and the box while the air is clear and aircraft available and ground resources are following up with line.

Reported as 1,200 acres, 5% contained as of 3:24 pm but that acreage seems low even for that time of day compared to more recent reports.
