The near gropton, non-rassine of the vegetation bar correlated CZU on the helicopter 614, 8.5 miles from the west 2,200 airtighting spot. Yeah, Monterey, engine 4665 an route, Station 60 for equipment. On east one. On 8-W-235. That's clear. Break Canyon I see from 614. If the fire is really just one strip running straight up the hill, there is a little bit of spread up the hill. I call it a slow to moderate rate of spread. I think once we get a couple tanks on that, we're going to be able to slow it down real quick for you. The crew is going to be working in on a mid-slope road from the northwest. For now, once we get a water source and we get a tank on it, we'll make a decision. If we don't take most of the scene out of it on the first off, we're in order of the tankers. First unit at scene, highway IC[2] V Fire 23 for Tactful, respond on east 1848. Way at the top of the ridge, but it would take quite a while to reach at that point. From the battalion 4615 into 35. Engine 1661 from SCU, one engine from San Juan Batista. It's just one kind of long drift, I might call it, you know, and Highway 1.29. First unit has seen Highway IC, V Fire 23 for TAC[1]. Responding East 1848.
