Well, the DEFLF Command, command post is at the trailhead, Holland Glade Red. Copy, Deputy O's Command, 1114. 15. 15, go ahead. Looks like we got a couple of tree stumps on fire in the middle of woods. They're just smoldering right now. We're trying to figure a way we can get the go-carb back here, but it's pretty thick. I'm not even sure we got enough to get back here.

She's going to grab a shovel right now and start putting a little bit of dirt on it. I'm going to slip back to see if I pick up a couple more people. All right, so you're coming back, are way? Yes, I'm going to start that way. All right, very good. Engine three.

15, do we have a, correction 60? Do we have a pickup truck on the other side? I'm going to ride down that cat and see if they can get in that way. 86A cutting over there now. 860 is coming in from station 3. We can direct them over that way.

Chief, I do have a manpower here from Engine 3 at Hollingway Road. Alright, if you're going to go off the Hebron, I can have the firefighter transported on double zero down the trail from Holland Glade to as far as they can go and then walk the rest.
01:34
Yeah, let's do that. I want to head up the other way and see if I can find a way to get in on that. I know I don't, I'm pretty sure I don't have enough others to reach where I am right now. All right, we'll have double zero start heading that way from Holland wave with a crew of four.

Will you have the accent from Burton Avenue? You know what we used to have that problem with these guys burying in the corner there? Yeah, I'm heading that way. All the guys, I put Alexis coat and helmet right at the edge of the road for the path and she is straight back from there. Double zero's got it, thank you. Eighty-six-zero.

Your location. Come up Holling Glade now, beyond engine 3. All right, 17, 30. I want him to come your way and tell him word again. Right now, I'm waiting for 15, but haven't come over this way, we might be able access it over near Burton's Avenue, where we either have trouble with those guys doing at home at night.
02:58
Yeah, Marine's it. We're not going to be able to make it back there. It's too shallow. Okay, we'll just have to wait for Dendrix Monday then. Thank you. Yeah, I'm over at Burton's Avenue where we had the problem.

A couple years ago or a year ago with the guys burning the corner there, I'm a block over from the trailhead. All right, so far as half close to it, there's one little tight spot. I think we can get the truck by it. So I guess that's take her time.
