Holy shit. Good luck Summit County bros. That looks damn close to town.
EDIT: The City Council is meeting today at 3:45 to discuss closing all the city owned trails and open space. Once they make a decision I'll post a link here.
I can't see how they are going to leave it open with the 416 barring down on the Falls Creek area now and with other parts of CO starting to blow up too.

I’m in Mesa cortina. There’s a shitload of aircraft fighting this thing. 30 acres and growing apparently. We are on pre-Evacuating. I’m grabbing some family members and vehicles.

I'm working on the water line project that has Swan Mountain Road shut down today, so I cruised up the road. Fire is right up against some structures.
Old's Cool.

Wind is blowing in the direction of the neighborhood. Sucks. I have a lot of friends/family up there. I'm out now.
I believe I saw Blurred on his roof with a garden hose as I was leaving so at least we got that going for us.

Yes lots of dead stands of trees... I'm guessing the fire hitting those is what caused pillars of flames. Steep slopes into the drainage too. Its windy, warm, and dry.
But they did fuel mitigation up there in some areas near houses.
Probably over 1000 people are evac'd or pre-evac'dOriginally Posted by blurred

Per twitter, 1300+ evacuated, 1300+ on pre-evacuation.
From some satellite shots it looks like there was a fair amount of fire mitigation done on that side of the main body of structures; hopefully they can hold the line there.

As in the trailhead across Ryan gulch road from treehouse? Or the trailhead at the top of the road like you're going to ski silver? My folks have a treehouse condo, thankfully not around, but stressed.
