If my memory serves we right, thats not too far from last year’s KNP Complex?
South and west of it. It’s in that section of foothills between KNP and the Castle Complex from 2020, SE of Three Rivers.
In between both of them to the west.

Sheriff Mike Boudreaux has issued an Evacuation Warning for the area of South Fork Drive, from Cinnamon Canyon Drive, including Cinnamon Canyon Drive, to the park entrance, on both sides of the roadway, including Grouse Valley Drive, due to the Marmot Fire.
An Evacuation Warning means that residents should prepare now to evacuate if it becomes necessary. If you require extra time to evacuate, please consider leaving the area now.
127 per AA
Looks like a, let it run to the top, drop retardant across ridge, let helitack keep it in check while it gets flanked- kind of fire. With all the instability around it, it doesn’t seem to want to push up very hard.
Requesting 2 golf ST’s. Plus 2 private hire WT’s.
Trying to post the FIRIS video… guess it’s there.
Kern sent a type 2 IA crew (crew 10).
