1924 Woods Fire isn’t on here… #FergusonFire is burning in that burn scar
Dont forget the 2009 Big Meadow Fire that burned just north of El Portal and west of the park entrance

Did the fire cross hwy 140 to the north?
That is my understanding from where the Air craft are flying. It appears that way.

I was thinking the same thing???!!
Yep , in the " Horseshoe" where we always had problems in that canyon. Has it made it into the old Stanislaus Complex scar yet?
Yes it has gotten into the old complex scar. I was there that show many moons ago.

Has anyone heard what is going on with private resource orders. Have not seen hardly any activity on the Calfire lists. Just curious why they aren’t using all available resources…
New legislation from cal fire about contractors. It’s in the open discussion I believe

Copy. Thank you. New here so I’m just figuring it all out.
It’s a federal incident so they won’t be using the Cal Fire list. They will be using the federal ordering process.

Its a fed fire, fed contract list. They will take an out of state resource first if they are available before going down the Cal fire list. Same goes for single resource OH positions
Copy. That’s why I threw in “Calfire” because I am not sure how unified command works.
Thank you

Look at Google maps and the green part by the 140 horseshoe is pretty much the same as Fed DPA. State DPA outside of that Forest boundary but it is pretty much all BLM land with a few pockets of private with nothing on them so still technically FRA I guess.
If somebody cares to comment, if a fire like this with command structure in place burns out of Fed DPA and onto State DPA but it is still Fed land, it would seem like the State would not really be in a hurry to move in on that, correct?
