Photo this afternoon

Taken by Ken Wright from Ray Sanborn’s house: Ken said helicopters have been runnight up there all afternoon. I asked if he thought it was a back burn and he said he didn’t think so. For once, Kenny, I hope you are wrong.

Was this a back fire, or the eastern front taking off?

Thanks,
