3 pm — WOHOO just brought in the VLAT. I was getting my real camera, but had to change batteries. If it makes a second run, I am ready!!

I am informed, not the VLAT, but T-137, which looks like a VLAT to me. File photo:

View from Treebones at start from Jonny Taitano:

From Annie Haven at Coastlands:

2:41: Gary Son says 20 acres. Don’t know where he got that info. But it is above him.

  • PV School has no internet this week due to events unrelated to the fire. Fortunately, I am working from home in Cambria and was able to call school to warn staff who were/are on site for 2020-21 instructional planning. Not sure how they are dealing with it, but if fire goes out of control, flies down slope, school could be at risk.

  • Is LPF Engine 18 from the Nac Station? Looks like LPF Engine 17 at PV has not responded but #18 has responded.

  • Picture #2 that Tree Bones shot is a direct on shot behind them. There use to be a trail that traveled right up over that saddle & hit the Willow Creek Rd. The smoke seems closer to Willow in the photo than to Plaskett but there's a ridge in the way so you can't see Willow.
