With this 40 mph winds you can kiss the green's peak area good by. Started on the Apache Res.

Yeah heck of a birthday present. We can see flames coming up over different ridges from the fire department. Not looking good.

from my backyard with 10x bino's i just watched one of the superjumbo tankers make a drop-boy those suckers are big and it is disconcerting to watch them fly into the terrain and behind a mountain(lake mtn). and i am 25 miles away. it headed right back to williams gateway at high speed!

That's the only big piece of Unit 1 that didn't burn in the Wallow. They did a bunch of thinning in there so hopefully that will help.

We were headed to Greens Peak to camp over the 4th and hit the archery tournament. Looks like we better come up with plan B. I am hearing there was a big boy scout campout where the fire started?
