Augmented ground resources dispatch from MMU.
Cascadel woods is mandatory evacuation, plenty of dead fuel in that part of the creek fire scar.
Traffic from Kern ECC to South IC (20 acre new start in Kern) most air resources are currently unavailable for other incidents. This incident is priority as they are trying to keep it from going extended.
40 acres, spotting, will go extended from IC
Its not to far from the backside of castle point and could make a run up that drainage. Still spotting.

I believe that was the Fish Fire from 2019.
Fish fire was further east below mammoth pool and only 80 acres, of course everything orange is the creek fire. There was also a fire last year just to the north.
