Yes this is big time BAD ... over 106,000 acres so far.
It's south, East and west of us ... Spent last night and today helping friends evacuate live stock from the area.
The communities to the south of us were evacuated last night.
Still ZERO % contained.

Haven't found a good source for containment on it yet. Karma still online for everyone affected, especially Jeff, his family and friends.

http://activefiremaps.fs.fed.us/

here is a google map link for the area that seems to be affected right now. Hope that Jeff isn't in that visible view. http://maps.google.com/maps?source=s...46849&t=h&z=12

According to Jeff, it's still 0 percent contained This is looking very bad.

Stay safe, Jeff!

Notice this fire on the way back in from Colorado, You can see it just about where the turn off is from Tuba city. Not good at all it seems like every year there has to bee one of these up north and the majority of the time its started because negligence or pure ignorance. Hope all is well jeff.

Or because the tree huggers successfully lobbied the EPA to stop certain controlled burns aimed at preventing wildfires. Kinda like shooting yourself in the foot eh?


Regardless of the cause, prayers continue.
