Fire camp and a helicopter assisting the fire.

Fire evacuation

We this is the first time ive had to evacuate a fire due to rain. We had a thunder shower that didnt have a lot of rain but enough to make it nearly impassible. At briefing they warned about the soil here. It gets pretty messy.
As for the fire well we made good progress today. The rain helped to. I hope to have more posts later but the signal is scetchy at best. Stay tuned....

July 5

We had some rain on the fire during the night.  We are in mop up mode. Sadly one home was lost a couple of days ago. Not much exciting happening.  The cell service has been poor at best so bear with me and keep checking in for updates and pictures.
