Go ahead, chief.
06:18
Do you want to start down there or back where I am? What do you think's best?
06:24
We can't do anything on this end because we can't get past the tree till that clears it.
06:29
It's a small fire on that side of the tree.
06:33
As of right now, if we have different access from that end, you know, we could possibly get it to it from there.

But I was turning around heading back your way.
06:44
Received. Yeah, the one I'm at to, fire just surrounded
