We're just getting through the station.
00:11
Okay, thanks guys.
00:15
Okay.
00:19
I'm brushing. One, ten.
00:23
What did it look like on the other hand?
00:30
We're going to hit these hot spots on the back for a load of water from there.

Utility (number withheld), scene (number withheld).
00:49
Chief,
00:50
the other one is or not.
00:57
It looks like 37 brush on the east side.
01:02
We're out ahead bottom here and we haven't reached all right yet.
01:06
The east, we're towards the west.
01:13
Okay.
01:15
Chief to 315, you can't reach any further.
01:18
I'm done. Come around this bottom, I got all I could take on this here.
01:23
There's still fire up.
01:29
3-1 chief. Probably about 10 o'clock. It looks like there's still fire up on the top going.
01:35
Now at the far end.
01:41
Okay, I see if they're in that federal in between the fields there.
01:50
Big 31 Bruch is going to be coming back filled up here. Maybe we can have them back up through there then.
02:01
Bunkman,
02:02
37 brush.
02:04
Good, 7 brush.
02:07
We're going to fill up with the water now.
02:10
This is here across the river,
02:13
we'll just have to keep an eye on it, but there's no visible fire.
02:19
The road is 14, we're hit this 32.
02:27
Chief from five,
02:29
I'll bring everything I can as far as we can get this handline. Once our brush comes back,
02:34
if we can get them to come back through here and hit these hot spots again that I can't hit, I think we'll be in good shape down here on this side.
02:43
See, do you have any real big visible fire?
02:50
It keeps flaring up here as soon as it gets windy,
02:53
but I can catch you with the handline.
02:57
Let's go.
03:05
213 brush. Are you guys back yet?
03:14
It's just from brush.
03:16
We're up on top when they're going away where you stop the surface for vacuumarily.
03:23
If you can come back to upper end of the field, not where you guys went out just a few minutes ago.
03:30
I have a green line here that we can show you quick.
03:34
Sounds clear, yeah, we're in the upper field now.
03:42
Chief, but you still have a couple of hotspots.
03:47
Yeah, that's copy. We stood by a good bit.
03:50
It wouldn't hurt to have the brush truck come back down here in a little while and soap as to this. It's still steaming pretty good.
03:59
Really, Steve.
04:00
We're going to get them filled up first. We're going to try to make some recorder around a little bit so that we can get brush trucks on and stuff.

Up here in between these corn stalks, there's still visible fire on the bottom, but it's not
