Dan, can you repeat your last transmission? You said you're unable to continue south.
00:07
Negative,
00:08
cannot continue east.
00:10
We cannot, I do not see where you left off on the plane.
00:16
Copy. Are you still on the Zulu side or the Alpha side in relation to where the heel is? So Zulu being west and Alpha being east.
00:28
East.
00:30
I believe so.
00:34
Copy. Just keep heading south if you can.
00:37
It opens up really good once you get through the stage.
00:41
If you can't make it, just find your best access out.
00:46
Okay, let me see if I'm reading you right.
00:48
You want me to head south from the north side? Correction, south from the south side.
00:54
You want me to head north across the fire, the black?
00:57
We're on the south side of the flank.
01:01
Yeah, it continues further south towards Swan Falls Dam.
01:06
So, or southeast, I should say.
01:09
But once you get through the stage, it opens up pretty good.
01:14
It goes quite a while.
01:16
This flank goes probably another mile south.
01:22
All right, I copy.
01:23
We're gonna head cross country.
01:25
Until we bump into another road south, or until we get to that grassy flat you're talking about.
01:33
Copy.
01:34
Brush six two, brush six one.
01:38
Go ahead on fire three.
01:41
Is that you guys on that two track that we initially came in in the green?
01:48
Yeah, we're not on the two track, but we are parallel.
01:50
We're heading back to the two track we came in on.
01:54
Copy, what's your water like?
01:57
Three three quarter and a half.
02:01
If you can.
02:02
See us, but we are directly to your southeast.
02:07
If you're closer to the water tender, go fill up.
02:10
But there should be a two-track just on the south of a little knob right there that would take you right to where we are.
02:18
Yeah, copy.
02:21
Command, brush six one driver.
02:23
I think we are just about out of water.
02:25
We're blinking on E.
02:28
Copy that. Go ahead and shut down and let go.
02:32
Get some water.
02:33
Back in the stage for a bit.
02:35
So.
02:37
Copy.
02:40
We have a brush six one.
02:43
Do you guys have a location on your fire tender?
02:48
The tender's a couple minutes out yet, and you got another brush truck coming in on that two track we entered on.
02:58
We'll let you know once it's here, but you want to head back out the two track we came in on.
03:03
That's where we're going to have it.
03:07
Copy that. Maybe have them stay a little further south.
03:10
Looking at Onyx, there's a, I'm gonna, we're gonna try and come out of Ridgeview.
03:15
French Street might be a better access road for us to come in.
03:19
Okay, sounds good.
03:20
We're up here to turn on Swan Falls, where we went in at.
03:26
So we'll watch for you guys to come out.
