Yeah, the Dozer is parked at the intersection of the 19.3 and the 26th road.

Just to the right of the cool spring, the cool part label.

Copy off the fire turning to Grand Cust Airport 1723.
00:19
Copy. I'll head that way.
00:21
...at 1724.
00:22
No, I don't think we're going to get any pushing in.
00:25
Hopefully we can get the dozer in place for tomorrow morning, though.
00:28
I affirm and we're going to check on that session 5 and 8 tomorrow and then try to get to those houses tomorrow too.

Nice. 572. There's no fire.

I'm going to talk to the Metro for a little bit and I'll be clearing.
00:57
572 there's no bridge wildland at 1725.

C40 and the attack two.
01:04
Hey, what's going on? It drove down.
01:09
You got the dozer?
01:10
I'm headed to the dozer now.
01:11
Yeah, I just got down this truck.
01:13
I just see my getting very far.
01:15
It looked like I could have drove all the way that I just came from.
01:19
You might not be on the right road.
01:21
You should have ran it to me. Let's meet you at your dozer.
01:22
Hi, firm. Okay,
01:24
okay. So, yeah,
01:25
I think they may have gone to a different road, so I'll meet them at the dosier there and get them walked in.
01:31

Medford, 241.
01:43
241. 21 is in the 8,900 block of Starlink Creek Road, attempting to locate.
01:50
241 is in the 8900 block, attempting to locate at 1730.
01:54
Still not enough to stop anything.
01:56
Yeah, I copy that.
01:57
I'm over on Cirling Street with 241 and I'm gonna have to reload the fuel trucker as well.
02:05
But a lot of water dogs so far.
02:09
And you say you're not getting a whole lot of precip or you didn't.
02:11
Directly under the shell I do for a little bit, but it's still not enough to get the ground wet underneath the trees.
02:17
Right now I'm underneath the next cell that's rolling up and I'm getting enough to turn the windshield wipers on and the ground's getting a little wet.
02:25
But the best place to reload is going to be back out a little apple gate and upper apple gate for you.
02:30
Yeah, copy that.
02:31
All right, well we'll stay touch.
02:33
I imagine we'll be getting more reports from water dogs and whatever else.
02:37
If the tail end of this thing doesn't clear, it might be a little tough getting recon in here before pumpkin.
02:44
Yeah, I understand.
02:45
Let's hear them up first day in the morning with Canada, though.
02:47
Yeah, that'll be in the worst.
02:49
That's 3rd, 130 in service, North County.
02:50
1.30 in service, Mass County, 1732.
02:52
1.40, 241. You got me on red?
02:54
Go ahead.
02:55
Yeah, I just tied in with Heavy Brush 53.
02:57
They're saying that the caller said that it was coming from the last ODF previous fire, up towards Deming Gulch.
03:03
So I'm going to head up that direction and see what I can see.
03:06
And I've just seen another strike over there, so I'm going to head up toward Deming Gulch.
03:09
I copy that.
03:10
I'm just up the road from there.
03:11
I was just going to ground proof that strike this on the map up just above the road, pass your location.
03:18
And yeah, I did see a lot of waterabouts coming up in that stemming area, but it's worth a check for sure.
03:24
All right, so I'm going to get turned around and head up that direction.
03:26
Sounds good.
03:27
And, yeah, I think that that Griffin Lane mission that we were talking about earlier is probably worthy as well.
03:35
But if I'll reload my tracker and then I'll probably swing back around and taking them a passenger strong.
03:42
Yeah, I copy.
03:43
I'll head up Deming Gold to check that out and then I'll swing back down and head up Griffin Lane.
03:46
Metford.
03:47
241. 241. Nothing's showing in the 8900 block.
03:49
A lot of you water dogs tied in with a heavy brush 53.
03:53
They told me that the caller said it was coming from the dimming gold chariot, so I'll be heading in that direction.
