They asked about dozers unsure if they got permission even with dozers I think it would be hard for them to punch line in the down trees

Unfortunately, the scanner that covered YNP on Broadcastify is out of service. You can try the multi-county “Central Sierra Fire Feed” and I do hear some air traffic. Since this fire is not CDF-focused, I’m not sure how much traffic you’ll hear otherwise.
