Transcript:
One thing that has dropped in. Not a pretty solid visual on smoke that's coming off. The north side of, I believe, Buffalo Mountain, just our side of the hook, break. I'm on Polly Pine Road about a cool mile east of Schledegels. And I could see it about halfway up the north side of mountain. It did just dissipate a little bit. I'm not sure if it's on state forest to drive it. Is it what you need to do? Not at this time. I would just start a unit log. I need to contact 304 and see what his status is. and then go check this thing out. I believe my course of action next is going to be to go up Whippoorwill Way or Whippoorwill Lane, where (name withheld) had a timber sale not long ago, and see if I can access it from that road if it is, in fact, on private. Thank you, 7.
