They caught it once the sun set and wind died down. It went for 8,000. Good dozer and engine show.

FKU ordered everything in the world to head for shaver lake area while fence meadow lookout was saying your smoke was just a dust cloud. It was funny hearing out of unit resource orders for engines and dozers while the lookout is saying theres no fire. I did get to see the new SNF dozer with the big blade rolling up 168.

Pretty Kool !!

Sometimes it works out alright! This couple planned on getting married at the grooms grandfathers house that the grandfather built but they weren’t allowed to enter into the fire area here on the Dollar Ridge Fire to even check to see if the house made it. With solid work done with Dalton, and Breckinridge IHC and others the house was saved. Although the newlyweds weren’t able to have their wedding at the house they came to thank us personally on their wedding day. We are grateful for the lives we impact.
