ANOTHER DISCLAIMER:
While the company I founded provides contract mapping services to Incident Management Teams working on many of the fires I cover, I am no longer involved in the day-to-day incident mapping operations of Deer Creek Resources, nor do I receive any privileged information from them. All of the data and intel I post here comes from public sources.

Opinions are mine and do not reflect the views of my sponsors or any government agency. Any projections of potential wildfire spread is presented for educational/speculative purposes only.

I am not affiliated with the command structure of any incident I discuss here. My analysis is not intended to inform anyone on whether or not they should evacuate or stay in a wildfire area. Please follow any evacuation advice from local authorities.
