Yeah, we're in the area of (place_name withheld).
00:03
We're not seeing anything.
00:05
Doesn't sound like the forest service plane has seen anything either.
00:09
You want to maybe give the reporting party a call back and see if they got any additional information?
00:16
I did talk to our reporting party, and the blueberry island that he's referring to is the island out in front of (place_name withheld), not the blueberry island as in the island that is named (place_name withheld).
00:29
It is a couple hundred feet in the vicinity of the (place_name withheld) beach where their kayaks and volleyball court is there, just south of that.
00:38
I don't know if you guys want to head up that way and take a look, or you want me to drive all the way around since you're on the water in that area.
00:43
It's up to you guys.
00:44
Let me know what you want me to do.
00:49
Yeah, ten four.
00:50
We'll head up the north arm here by boats.
00:55
It sounds like that is where the plane is looking over (place_name withheld) area.
01:02
Yeah, copy that.
01:03
That's where the guy is calling from.
01:05
It's right across from his place.
01:06
It's that island out in front of (place_name withheld), just a little bit south of that.
01:11
That beach there where the dock is and where all their kayaks and everything are.
01:16
Said it was a pretty good size fire and then it kind of died off.
01:19
So if you want to go take a look.
01:21
And advise, you could probably get there a lot faster than I can.
01:26
10-4.
01:29
Yeah, MORSE Chief, Forest Service FE 3.
01:34
Yeah, go ahead.
01:37
Yeah, the beaver just made a lap over there, so whatever it was isn't putting up much smoke.
01:41
I've also got an engine heading to the north on (place_name withheld), maybe (place_name withheld), out to (place_name withheld) and see what they can see.
01:47
We'll let you know on FE Three here.
01:51
Yeah, sounds good.
01:54
That other smoke that was down the other way, I think it might just be some inversion coming and settling in that swamp area by the river.
02:01
I looked around down there, didn't see anything.
02:03
But it is definitely some smoke in that area also.
02:08
Yeah, I copy that was a (name withheld) call.
02:13
Yeah, that's correct. It was that one on the.
02:15
I stopped on a bridge and if you look over, you can see it kind of laying in that swamp.
02:18
It might even be just fog starting to settle in.
