Looks like probably 2015 Willow Fire then. Very close to Cascadel. Same with 2001 North Fork Fire. Both would have been just north of Cascadel on the western aspect of Whisky Ridge (which would likely be why you remember Peckinpah ) and into South Bass Lake area.

Temps in the hundies, winds in the 20’s, and humidity in the lower teens. No bueno.

AA states critical rates of spread northerly up the San Joaqiun River drainage. No stopping it.
Any suppression resources to the north along with people need to be evacuated. Including the north east flank. He’s not entirely sure of the landmarks to help out where the perimeter is.

Fire Watch 51 enroute from Modesto to map perimeter.

Fire confirmed in Wiskey campground. I don’t see that on google…looking, see whiskey falls campground.

There are reports of the fire already in Wagner campground near Mammoth Pools, per the IC or Ops via a phone call her received.

He stated “fire already on the ground”.

Is a long ways from where I thought the bulk of the fire was.
