I sent Ben Lepesant out to Shuteye without considering the smoke from the Rough Fire.

Anyone know the current air quality conditions?

The "Willow Fire" is your real concern. It's contained but some roads are closed and its still smoldering.

Ryan,

Your buddy is going to die, but you probably already knew that!

I cannot comment about the closed roads that micronut mentioned, but the smoke from the smoldering Willow Fire should not be a problem. I was up along Beasore Road two weeks ago and never noticed any smoke from the Willow Fire. You will probably get a bit more smoke from the Rough Fire, but not so much to be intolerable.

This is from www.inciweb.com


Road 8S09 is closed but that's about it for now.
