Though it is visible to the naked eye in that map, you donât have the 2011 Motor fire on that burn scar list, which it appears the spots are burning in âfiercelyâ per AA.
Thatâs on the South side of the river⌠I was just posting in relation to the spots on the N side
Air attack wants 10-15 air tankers for tomorrows air show.
The spot fire is 2,000 acres.
That some pretty rough country that spot fires in. Thatâs a lot of Air Force he has ordered.
The fire is 27,129 acres with 7% containment. 2,832 personnel are currently engaged on the fire which includes 204 engines, 38 water tenders, 17 helicopters, 70 crews, and 40 dozers.
Last night the Ferguson released some of the immediate need resources that were dispatched from MMU cover assignments.
MMU just dispatched the Golf strike team back to the fire immediate need to Division Echo, which is the El Portal area.
Fire has crossed Miller Gulch and retardant line and outflanked resources that were going direct. Pulling out resources back down to the river to start doing indirect.
