The feds don’t post IAPs to the FTP site because they consider the phone numbers on the 205A to be sensitive info.

The fire has been fairly quiet activity wise. The air has been to lousy for tanker to fly. Most active section of the fire is division romeo.

It’s looking like hwy 41 will be a control line, true? I have a trip to the park planned for Aug 5 and I’m feeling like the air should be decent by then, any thoughts?

@Lkng4intel honestly I would doubt it. The plan around the 41 should help contain the incident, but with it burning through all that timber I would expect it to put up a fair amount of smoke for a while (weeks), even after the intense spread has been stopped. The only hope for clear air in YNP by then would be a wind from the NE. Take a look at the forecast and see where the pressure is forecasted to move to. If there’s a high pressure out to the NE _and_a low pressure somewhere on the other end, then if all the other variables fall into place it may clear out. Clear as mud? Hopefully mother nature will step in and make your trip a success! YNP’s website may offer more info, if you hadn’t already checked there.

Heading to this fire tomorrow to relieve our crews that have been out there’s for two weeks. What are we looking at when we get there? It’s a generic question but just trying to get intel. New country for me day or night, I was on the Rim fire wondering if same?

Very similar country. There has been fairly strong inversions over the fire almost everyday limiting fixed wing use. Firing ops have been taking place in divisions T, h, g,and now on division p. Huge amounts of standing dead snags due to bark beetles.
