Been watching the Carr on Satellite, looks like a volcano erupting.

The Ferguson fire takes another firefighter from us. Thoughts and prayers go out to their family, friends, and the Arrowhead hotshots.

The fire I've been working the last few days is now in rehab; I'll be falling hazards tomorrow. Ought to be interesting. The reminder of the hazard is timely and important.

The area of the Ferguson fire is 90% pine tree mortality.Thats alot of hazards out on the fire line not including the fire. Our family property lost 600 trees, we've got 5 mature pines left. We've removed 200.

It's hot, dirty work. I'm just taking the most likely to fall on people and leaving the rest for somebody to do by contract.

 

[RandyMac]

Add Covelo/Round Valley to the list.

Plus Sutter Buttes, Owens Valley and ...

Redding is a bit too far to see from Crescent City, I lifted that off a news site.
We haven't seen the Sun here in 4 days.
