Yup. Organics gone.

Nope, fire suppression went on too long and too far before we figured out otherwise. Now it all burns to moon scape. What they will do next is shoot grass into areas to try and stop erosion. Maybe seed by air as well. Try to get some grasses started come winter. Wild flowers will be everywhere...

Burning in areas not burned in 75 plus years some of it. heavy fuel loads, heavy and high grasses, hot fuel, steady winds. Now, in our area, it only takes about 8 years for the chaparral to grow above head height. The chamise, Adenostoma fasciculatum, all by itself, burns like gasoline. Little...

LO is heavy up here right now. Road closures and looting protection. Among other things. :/:

Huge Gerry! Just another day at the funny farm today. We are trying to install the engine in the brown ford at the shop next door. I hear what sounds to be fire works coming from next door. Some one bought the place and had seemingly a few folks running goats on the property and fixing it up...

Trees? We don't need no stinking trees!!

Little flare up today while I was on my way home. Took a picture of the column when I was moving the chipper in to tomorrow's site

Steve, the phone is already ringing. Guy that has a fire wood processor and an LTO could cash in right now.

That is up in Squisher country currently

Thank Justin. I hope you come through up there unscathed. I told my parents they should check in with their friends up in Merritt.

They have for casted thunderstorms here in cali. Probably high country and north of me. Hope you don't get a lightening start if the moisture goes more north..

Justin, seems like the whole province is on fire. And Jim? How close is that monster in Montana? 200,000 acres? Buddy!

So, evac lifted after mid day. Went and got feed for all the critters. They had a supply station in town. They have an overage from all the rescues going home. Power came right on after we supplied up. So we have full water tanks again. The Sheriffs were taken back that we stayed, wondered why...

Here is the incident sheet from yesterday. We are now at 40% containment. I am just having a hard time capturing the image on my phone. If any of you Wan to see some good FF pictures of the incident, hit my FB page Stephen Cole

Fi, that is what is basically happening here. Fire was trying to take whole small towns. Huge amounts of resources moved in finally. Mean while, our CA politicians keep cutting fire budgets:X Here is the dozer line they are cutting for a fire break behind my area and why we are still on evac...

Probably way more frustrating for the guys working the fire.

Need a break. Little flare ups are persistant. Pisses ya off. You see other evacs lifted and here ya sit Watching the helicopters And crews go by. Map shows the hot spots further out, but the crews are still mopping up, dealing with flare ups and cutting more fire line behind me. So still no...

:lol: Making me laugh. Someone in town said something similar. I reminded them, this time of year rain=thunderstorms=lightening=more fire...... Gerry, I know what you mean. I saw a picture last night of a building in Bullion, that was once a church and school. A family lived there now that we...
