I'll be out of pocket this morning until about noon time. If someone else is monitoring, or checking the InterCanyon blog or Twitter Feeds, perhaps they can post occasionally here.
On a side note... I'll be picking up a trunking scanner, the type that is compatible with most public service and safety agencies... and in this way I won't have to directly rely on the internet based feeds. This should happen in about 3 weeks.
But 285 Bound can always use all the help we can get. The only way to keep our eyes on community safety is to... well... keep our eyes (and ears) in tune to community safety. Everyone who can should help.

Thanks for all your help Walt! I'm also going to be out this am (pilates, kids swimming class, Conifer Chamber Board meeting) so y'all can jump on the scanner feed and post updates! :thumbsup:

Bear Gulch Fire Update 8:30 AM
A squad of six Inter-Canyon firefighters are hiking into the Bear Gulch Fire at this time. No smoke visible. Air drops appear to have knocked down the fire but still requires firefighters to check on status. Research last night identified a potential shorter route - may require only a two hour hike.

Inter-Canyon Fire @ICFRPIO 25m #icfpd crew boss says some smoke may be visible in area of #beargulchfire. Small fuels burning in center of fire. Not at risk for growth
Crews remain working at the Bear Creek Gulch Fire. Working on perimeter fireline. Rocky and steep terrain. Six Inter-Canyon firefighters led by a Crew Boss are working the fire. These firefighters have completed the Federal National Wildfire Coordinating Group (NWCG) S130/190 course and many have advanced training.
