We are camped in a spike camp in the fairgrounds at Republic Wa. Its an hour and a half NE from Omak.
Due to the weather we havent been able to burn all the control lines together. They need to get that done in order to lift the evacuation levels and let the people go home.
That being said Mother Nature may have a say in where the control lines are. There is another storm coming out of the gulf of Alaska, and we are supposed to have light rain tomorrow and showers on Sunday.
It looks like we will be here for our full 14 day tour. If so and they dont extend us we will be on our way home on the 17th. This may be our last fire if the season.
When all the dust settles i will have more to share with you when the season ends. It is sometimes hard to keep you up on what is going on due to poor phone signal. I also have a lot more pictures to share. It has been really hard to upload photos because of poor at best signals.
Anyway if you can please help me out with your generous donations twards the wildland engine fund i have posted on gofundme.com. You can find the link in my Facebook page under Mountaintravis. Or you can make a direct donation tome and i will forward it to the fund for the engine. If you cannot afford to donate please repost the link to those who
may be able to help out.
Thanks again and we will be home soon....
