Near timber mountain in the nellis air force range.
From flight tracker 24, it appears there’s two air attack planes (king airs) and I’ve seen two air tankers into this fire. T910 and T41. Is this on the national lab site?

It is in the Nelis (also known as the Nevada) test range.
This is also adjacent to the National Security Site.
All part of what used to be called the Nevada Test Site.
There is a ton of “Stuff” out there. Electronic warfare, Area 51, live bombing ranges, Yucca Flat, the Sudan Crater but also so.e of the most pristine land and unmolested ecosystems of the southern Great Basin/Mojave transition.
Isolated for use for 70-ish years and hardly touched before it is an amazing treasure.
