Put that mower, establish a water supply there.
02:41

Copy that, we'll do.
03:21
37 coming up the driveway.
03:27
474, 57, you're gonna have to follow me.

We've got to get over here on the edge of this hill before we get too far into the brush.
03:39
Copies coming around.
03:45
The water tank.
03:48
I think I'm going to abandon 49 and hop in that with Matthew and help you fight.
04:00
49 repeat.
04:03
I'm going to leave the tender here and get in my white pickup and help you fight the fire.
04:11
Okay, I kind of need you to establish a water supply down by that tractor.

I am on scene.
04:39
Do you have orders for me?
04:44
Do you want to establish a resource pool there at the tractor and mower at the bottom, either south or the northwest corner of the incident?
04:51
Copy that. I'll be resource, so you do have two tenders coming from all along with a brush rig.
04:59
And 4542, it's up on the top running on the replot area.
05:04
Out.
05:09
Man 457, you want us to work this brush pile here?
05:14
Yeah, let's get some energy taken out of those piles at the very least.
05:17
Then we can work it back by hand once we send the smoke knockdown.
05:21
Copy.
05:23
Uh, 42, we're gonna grab this fire running up on the top of the hill, or you want another order for it?
05:30
Oh, that'd be fine.
05:32
Everything back here is kind of slow moving at this point, but I can get a little bit of energy to take out a couple of these piles.
05:36
I think we'll be all right.
05:44
