I think that’s Hull. they couldn’t get in last night. we were talking about it on the TCU lightning thread. they’re walking in this morning.
AA 440 up over the Duckwall MTN area doing recon. Then heading up towards Dodge Ridge to recon.
AA 440 has picked up a total of 4 fires. Biggest is 30X30. STF engine crew is hiking in to one of them right now. He gave a lat and Long on each fire along with ROC.
STF has resources enroute to two fires, Pedro fire at N38 12.21 by W120 1.37 N. of Strawberry
and second incident Brown fire N38 7.46 by W120 4.26 = S. of Long Barn.
Brown fire …units in area UTL. Not sure what status of Pedro is??
Lighting has been active in those areas this afternoon. Wouldn’t be surprised they pick up smokes tomorrow.
as of @22:00 All I have heard in equipment going in quarters.
