Smoke of Foxton Rd

Been out helping a friend watch for smoke in Bailey so missed a lot of the scanner.

Does anyone know which side of Foxton Rd the smoke is on?

I know some are staging at Reynolds Park.

Thanks.

A Controlled Burn?

The Morons are in charge.

This was a controlled burn from several days ago that reignited. I hope no one is calling Jeffco right now while they are in the middle of several fires and trying to amass a lot of crews to handle this before someone loses a home.

Talked to a friend on her cell phone. They closed the road at 285 and Foxton. She is going home a different way. I think it would be wiser for her to stay out.
