a friend jumped grays creek. apparently it started in the brush moved 13 miles in a very short time ~ now it’s in the timber. people were parked up on Mesa hill looking down at the whole fire still moving northeast ~ straight for tamarack.
Just about 21,000 acres as of 08:00 this A.M. Goin crazy again today.
