MEU 1-1
This one is in southern Trinity County. Looks to have started on state land (MEU) but fairly close to MNF and SRF. Here is the latest spot. Looks pretty remote. Its starting to show heat on satellite.

Just to add in here. Listening to all the fire’s it’s hard to say, but one AA asked for 2 replacement copters because agency copters had timed out for the day.
