I watched the KCRA live helicopter of the battle along Highway 32 and it was amazing to see the efforts of the firefighters to keep the wall of flames from reaching the other side of the road. These guys are out here doing amazing work.

Is that on youtube? Id love to see that. I am not assigned to this incident but I have friends where are firefighters who were along 32 the other day.

@@TacitMoose It's a video posted to KCRA's KZbin channel under the Live videos tab called "LiveCopter 3 is over the Park Fire in Butte County, California's largest wildfire of the year so" I'm not sure if I can post the link here. It's incredible footage. At 50:30 you can see a spot where the fire has jumped highway 32. At 53:30 you can see the crews start to work it. at 57:30 it shows two S2s that they called in to douse it. Just as an observer, it seems like CalFire has really increased the effectiveness of their response and the coordination of their forces. The management of this fire was incredible. To you and your friends: you guys are amazing and the entire state is cheering for you every time you go out there for us.

I see many fire engines but no attempt to extinguish or slow down the flames.... Fire brigade mainly drives up and down it seems.

Why at the 7:34 point in the video are they not working that spot as an anchor point on the highway and then working into the fire south to keep it bound to the road as a firebreak?

@carterhoenig7759 2 ай бұрын

Some of us are naive. Please help explain bigger picture

@stevesdumpsterrave3080 2 ай бұрын

My family work in wildcard fire, have for over 20 years. It eas an honest question based on some experience. If I jumped the highway, which the PIO said was a key defensive line, why no active direct attack when it burned up to the road? Explain the please? And try not to be so pius about what you know. It's an honest question and if ypu can't answer it you clearly don't know.

@@stevesdumpsterrave3080 Dude, calm down. Carter is asking a question. NOTHING "pious" in that. He simply said he doesn't know about fire behavior, ("Some of us are naive" - speaking of himself) and asked you to PLEASE explain "anchor point," and how you mean to stop the fire at the road.

@scottjaros214 2 ай бұрын

@mikejones8866 my reply was to another person, Pluto... something. Not for Carter. Sorry for any misunderstanding. So, and anchor point is where you set a defensive area where you have good control of the fireside and have burned around it to create an area of black to work from. Basically a point you can work from to stop the fire at a defensive line such as a road or dozer line. Firefighters have kept the fire at Hwy 32 as an Eastern defensive line, and seem to be holding it pretty well.

Redding has the most state of the art retardant refueling facility in the country. Why can’t they stop this? They shouldn’t be filming there, they should be out of the way for retardant drop right at the highway. I heard it just jumped hwy 36 too. wtf are they doing?

Unfortunately no retardant in the world will stop this wildfire from growing the way this is going. Other fires in the west have pulled aircraft off the Park fire as well.

@@norcalstormchasing bullshit if this burns Shingletown they have failed. And or believe the conspiracies about letting shit burn for money. Ive lived in nor cal my entire life and never have I ever seen fires like I have in the last 5-10 years, 500,000- million acre fires? Are you fkn kidding me? Either they are completely incompetent or there’s an underlying motive, it’s one of the two. Oh fuels and dry blah blah save it, been that way for 40 years of my life, but why in the last ten years has the entire western Rockies burned to a fkn crisp in massive fires every year.

@tzon6802 it is true, though. There was a fire in Southern California Thursday, and they called a VLAT from Sacramento to assist with.

@eriksand9262 2 ай бұрын

Retardant doesn’t stop fires, especially ones of this size. It just slows them down a little. Plus with how big this fire is there isn’t enough aircraft to make a long enough line of retardant to stop it.
