Meadow Lakes and Owens Mt showing a solid amount of smoke at dusk. I was in the area during the Creek as crews burned off some pieces and put in 8-blade wide dozer lines. Steep and rough terrain with plenty of fuel from 1-1000 hour types, but there have been project burns in the area.

Any idea if an IMT is on order? Or not big enough yet for one. I love the Bretz Mill area I sure hope they get a stop

It’s looking like this one is going to go for little bit, I’d imagine they are getting ready to pull the trigger on ordering a team. The local team(14) is up on the lava
