Leslie Gulch fire

I just gor my resource order. We are going to the Leslie Gulch fire. It is near the Owahee Res. It is a really neat area. There are wild horses and the land is protected for them and for the ranchers who have stock there. So protecting the land there will be High priority.....

Vale Here we come!

We just got our dispatch to vale. I'm not sure which fire yet but we are leaving in the morning at 6:30.

When I find out where we are going I will post it for you.

What I do know is we will be in the desert.

Wildfire news

I know with the coming cooler weather here on the west coast it's hard to believe that fire season is so close. However it isn't that far away.

As a matter of fact there are fires burning right now. If you want to keep track of what is going on you can see the national fire report. This link shows fires 100 acres and larger.

Here's the link: http://www.nifc.gov/nicc/sitreprt.pdf

We call this the sit report.

Also here is another more detailed report on fires: http://inciweb.nwcg.gov/

Also I will post updates and as always I will give the inside scoop on  whatever fire we are on. When we go out.

Have a great day and enjoy the cool rain while it lasts.
