    Once it jumped the road it got extremely smokey very quickly. Thanking God for each and every one of you on the line, those in the air, and dispatchers. Heros one and all! I'm so very thankful for every moments effort.

      Looks like they are trying to maintain the fire line and some flames jumped across. You see them call in a water drop west side on the hill where you see a small patch of flames. They are working their asses off trying to prevent rhe fire from jumping. Heroes

    I fought wildland fires.... This video shows what spotfires do. This video shows extreme fire behavior wow!!!!!! These firefighters are very brave doing their best to fight fire. I did the ground and pound; type two hand crew. Digging fireline that's the only way to slow down the fire. Spraying water doesn't slow wildfires.

    4 months ago. Me and my mother where in big bear at an airbnb. From the 2nd to the 4th. Unfortunately felt like we didn't have enough time to there. But had a weird feeling we had to leave. And get home right away. Taking the 38 way up and down. Was such a beautiful day and drive. And boom the next day this fire was born. Was quite unbelievable seeing the area we literally just drove through destroyed.

    Great video. When you are in it, sometimes it’s hard to get a sense that you’ve lost that one and might as well abandon and reposition. From the time that first spot went up mid-slope it was lost. I’ve certainly been there, battling futilely when the fire is racing up the hill. Looking at this now with a bit more perspective, seems like you might as well wrap up and do structure protection on whatever you could save. SoCal fires!

      @@dsmom6898 Proper land management beforehand would prevent explosive wildfires. These devestating fires are the result of the piss poor liberal government that is in states like CA, OR and WA. You can't prevent wildfires entirely, and you shouldn't. Wildfires are an essential part of forest growth and health. But you can prevent devestating wildfires that rage out of control and destroy towns.
