This is such an INCREDIBLE photo!!!

Thank you, I also have a "Wow" photo of one the twins. I'll have to send it to you.

Holcomb valley is super nice, I hope it didn't burn to bad. I love going up there to campout and do a little gold prospecting. Glad to hear that no houses got burned!

The fire began in the Baldwin area by the transfer station and ecological reserve.
The fire has claimed over 1500 acres and while it is still burning, it is now 99% contained.

I visited your page and am curious, Do you know Frank Hayes? He drove a custom 1943 Willy's "Rock Crawler" that he built.

No, I don't think I know a Frank Hayes. Thank you for checking out my page! I'm glad to hear that the fire is 99% contained.

You're welcome.
