#PipelineFire overnight infrared flight data - slashes mean more heat (in general more current fire activity) and dots mean some heat (and, in general, somewhat less current fire activity). Significant resources are available for the #1 priority fire in the country right now. Image
firefighters had a great day on the line yesterday - more favorable weather allowed for significant aviation use and less wind pushing fire around. Particularly good progress on the west flank of the fire in the Kachina Peaks Wilderness.
Hotshot crews are working their way up the west flank from the bottom, and two crews were transported to the top of Fremont Peak this morning and are working down until they meet sort of in the middle.
There will also be a significant presence in Lockett Meadow today with five hotshot crews, five engines, and other resources. Beyond those areas, all divisions are well staffed and already out on the line working towards a second great day in a row.
I should have said Pipeline-Haywire, because both fires are being managed by the California Type 2 incident management team and both have significant resources working today.

#PipelineFire Lockett Meadow - got up there this afternoon, short version, looks better than I expected, and I’ll start some of with the worst: here’s the view of #lockettmeadow, which is good, but the ridge above it leading to Doyle Peak burned kinda hot, but meadow not at all Image
Possibility of some debris flow down off that ridge, but the campground should be mostly fine. And the meadow looks great. Didn’t get a photo but the first couple hundred yards of aspen from the trailhead burned up, but pass through there and you find what you’re looking for
I hitched a ride with the crew superintendent of the Mormon Lake Hotshots, one of our local crews, which just happens to be a pretty great crew with a pretty great supe. Both were great before a certain someone even got here as District Ranger, so I get no credit. 😀 Image
