Yeah, I copy that.
01:08
Are you close enough to hit it with your deck gun?
01:11
Uh,
01:13
Yeah, we could definitely put some water on it.
01:15
There's a hydrant right at the entrance, so if we need to dump the tank, we can do that and then go fill back up.

Hey, from your vantage point, does that seem like a good tactic? Hit that with the deck gun, then we're going to refill and you guys cut them off up.
01:45
We're able to hit it from there.
01:49
Yeah, I have it controlled over here on the north side,
01:52
but I would keep hitting with the deck gun, like you said.
01:54
We're probably going to run out of water pretty soon.
02:02
Yeah, if you guys can hit that north side, that's ideal.
02:08
Copy that. We'll hit the north side with the deck gun and then go top off.
02:32
And when he starts his deck out, if you can direct him to where he can hit that north into the fire.

how much reach are we getting with the deck end?
04:48
I can't even see it over here on the north side, sir.
04:51
I didn't know they were flowing it already, so we're not hitting the north.
04:56
Copy, but you're making an attack on the that side.

Maybe we can get a hold of them, have them bring their backhoe down here.

Hey, how are you on that western flank right there? It seems like we'd be better off getting brush for fighting fire on the western flank moving towards the north rather than on the south where it's not going anywhere.
06:56
Yeah,
06:57
we can definitely move the hose line over there.
07:00
Most of this is just smoldering now, Chief.
07:02
We've got bulk of the fire knocked down.
07:05
It's just going to smolder.

07:14
Can you confirm that from the north and from the eastern flank that we've got relatively fire control and just smoldering?
07:24
Hey firm, we're wrapped up on the north.
07:26
We're just trying to give the east, wrapped up the best we can.
07:30
We've got a few little ones here and there, but for the most part, we're wrapped up.
07:35
Let's continue on the eastern flank and the western flank and keep that knocked down on the north.
07:40
I am getting a backhoe from parks and wreck down as soon as we can.
