Noon: view from my property:
2:45 pm — AA12 puts all four tankers on load & hold at Paso airport.
Here are the campers who were camped where fire started. You can see their campfire. They were both naked when B drove by this am.
11:45 am — This is one heck of a lot of equipment being sent. Taking no chances!!! Plus, we have air attack and tanker. But in addition to all this, FHL just sent a water tender an a brush rig, and Big Sur Fire, and tons of Cal Fire are heading south on Highway One. I feel my place is more than well protected!!

That's pretty close, for a wildfire. Be careful.
Any idea who the SO being airlifted is?
Not sure it is SO or USFS or F&Gi or who
Busy day in the neighborhood. Sheesh. Great fire response!
glad you and area seem to be safe
Damn campers! I am a camper but only camps in designated camping sites and only when legal.
Hope it gets put out quickly. Big scare!
Any Update? Can't see any smoke from here (Deetjen's area).
Too bad no license plate visible- then taxpayers wouldn't have to pay for their lawlessness and carelessness!
Thank you for sharing, Kate. I hope these illegal campers, if found guilty for causing this wildfire, are charged and prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law, pay extensive fines, serve time in jail, and have their names and faces shared widely with the news media and local, county, and state agencies and representatives social media (Monterey County Sheriff’s Dept., Supervisor Chris Lopez, Los Padres National Forest, CA State Parks, California Highway Patrol, Congressman Jimmy Panetta, etc.)
