Do you? He called the guy who started it a cabin.

Like 30 cabins....the only one still standing is the guy who started the fire

the fire has killed everyone but the guy who started it, similar to a drunk getting in a wreck.

quote:

No major injuries have been reported. Twelve structures have been destroyed.

So that's not even true.

Check with your local and state authorities and question them with regard to the issue of whether California practices common-sense procedure for regularly clearing dead trees out and use of controlled burns.

I think you'll find that they do not.

Sorry man. We just got back in after mandatory evacuation.

Manpower and equipment sparse.
We and Redding were hogging it

Manpower from New Zealand came in for us to work the Mendocino side of range fire.
If it gets loose up in there, you're looking at 7,000 and 8,000 foot peaks and 80 or 100 miles of dense forest.

We had an arsonist last year.
He started the Clayton fire. 180 houses.

He started 4 fires in 3 weeks before they caught him.

shite like this is exactly why we need cruel and unusual punishment.

Nothing short of torture and an excruciating and slow death is justice in my mind.

Sign up with nixle

I think its dot gov

You will see advisories on cell.
If it goes to mandatory for you, it goes off like they kidnapped some 14 yr old girl.

Also, on your cell via internet, your local authorities will be broadcast.
You can get radio on your phone and watch live tv of authorities.

Nixle.

Pack now. Put some thought into it.

I was in one last year with ferocious winds. If they develop a wind storm they can cut you off. Seems like you are quite rural. Winding roads and trees.

The Redding fire had winds of 143 during the worst of it.

Pack now.

I know there are way more important things in the world, and I am grateful as of now no neighborhoods are imminently threatened, but this fire is burning to a crisp one off the most beloved hiking spots in Southern California. There are some of the coolest small waterfalls in those vales and hollows. The scenery is great....it’s all gone because of one douche
