IC was asked about dozer commit time and stated the fire is still 100% uncontained and can’t give commit times for equipment.

IC ordering 2 additional water tenders.
Looking at the camera looks like they have slowed the rate of spread drastically, and might have caught it at the ridge.

South Ops offered up a strike team of crews and the IC requested them to the fire.
IC ordered a type 3 strike team
ST 9321C from Kern County has been reordered to the Creek incident, Immediate need.
They got cancelled and just got re dispatched. KRN Crew 11 assigned as well.
Based on the above posts, the pic attached, and where AA is flying over on Flightradar, this is a crude representation of the location of the fire. If anyone has a more precise location, let me know and I’d be happy to update the map. The perimeter on the map calcs to about 550ac…but I’m just making a educated stab in the dark…!

Looks they fired out the lower part of the right flank and tied into the portion backing downslope. That’s what I saw looking at the rocky hill cam.
