WED SEP 23, 2026, 12:01 PM STRUCTURE FIRE VALLEY OF ENCHANTMENT VALLEY OF ENCHANTMENT CABDF-11439 SF/JN/10X WED 12:15PM YEAH, GO AHEAD. OKAY, THE THREAT TO THE VEGETATION IS ALMOST OVER. WE'RE HERE WITH THE FOREST SERVICE. WE'RE KEEPING ONE ENGINE COMING, CANCELING THAT. THE EXPOSURE TO THE NORTH HAS BEEN HANDLED AS WELL. SO WE'RE JUST DEALING WITH A FIRE ATTACK ON THE ONE TWO-STORY HOUSE. OKAY, I COPY. OKAY, SO THE VEGETATION THREATS HAVE BEEN MITIGATED. THE SECONDARY STRUCTURE EXPOSURE HAS BEEN MITIGATED. AND WE'RE JUST FOCUSING ON THE INITIAL STRUCTURE, CORRECT? YEAH, THAT IS AFFIRMATIVE. AS WELL AS THE U.S. FOREST SERVICE HAS CANCELED THEIR RESPONSE OUT OF THEIR ONE ENGINE. OKAY, I COPY. JUST TO CONFIRM, DO YOU THINK WE'RE SUFFICIENT ON RESOURCES? AND NOTHING ADDITIONAL IS GOING TO BE NEEDED ON THAT ADDITIONAL STRUCTURE? YEAH, WE'LL DEFINITELY HAVE A BUNCH OF OVERHAUL. THIS WILL BE A COMPLETE LOSS. SO YEAH, SOME EXTRA RESOURCES WOULD DEFINITELY BE HELPFUL. OKAY, I COPY. OKAY, STAND BY, 131. WED 12:30PM THE BULK OF THE FIRE WAS ON THE FIRST FLOOR, MINIMAL EXTENSION TO THE LOFT, WITH NO EXTENSION INTO THE SUB-FLOOR. OKAY, I COPY. YOU GUYS ARE GETTING A GOOD KNOCKDOWN ON IT. YEAH, THE RING'S ALL FIRED UP NOW, AND WE'RE GOING TO BE IN AN OVERHAUL. I KNOW WE'RE LIMITED ON RESOURCES, BUT IF WE COULD GET SOMEBODY TO OPEN UP THIS ROOF AT SOME POINT, IT WOULD HELP WITH VISIBILITY AND HEAT. OKAY, I'LL SEE WHAT I CAN DO. IF WE CAN DO MORE OF A HORIZONTAL, ONCE YOU FEEL COMFORTABLE WITH THAT. IF YOU WANT TO COORDINATE WITH EITHER 26 OR ONE OF YOUR GUYS OUTSIDE, I THINK THAT MIGHT BE THE BETTER OPTION FOR NOW. WE DO HAVE ADDITIONAL CAL FIRE RESOURCES AND FOREST SERVICE COMING. ARE WE GOING TO NEED THEM? I'M GOOD ON RESOURCES, AND YEAH, I'M GOOD WITH HORIZONTAL ALSO. OKAY, I COPY. WE'LL SEE IF WE CAN GET DONE WITH THE VENTILATION. WED 12:35PM VALLEY OF ENCHANTMENT (UPDATE): #SYCAMOREIC REPORTING KNOCKDOWN ON THE SECONDARY STRUCTURE.

The web cam that rotates showing the valley views seems like it's facing downward and showing only trees. Is this for a specific reason or does it need adjustment? I miss watching the sunrise over the valley and the long distance views while drinking my morning coffee
Possibly too many cloudy days or ice on the panels this morning. It would be difficult to get up to the solar power unit to perform repairs, with Shadow and KD returning regularly.
