    Default ID-BOF-Trinity Ridge??

    From a friend who works on the HT, Sommer is moving to Region 9 and his last rotation was the previous one. I am guessing that Suwyn is the replacement for the rest of the season?

    Interesting in that Team 7 shows as IC Bob Sommer's Team. Tom Suwyn is the Alternate IC on John Kidd's Team (Team 4)...

    Ahh, now it makes sense.

    Bob is indeed going to the Washington Office as the Fire Ecologist. He may show up for a couple of days to help 'transition' the team to Tom Suwyn who will be the IC for the rest of the season. Roudy Muir will be Tom's backup if needed. Team 7 is in good hands! Bob has one major project to complete before leaving Nevada--he has an antelope tag in the same area with me, and we will be bagging the big ones in NV-WID. :^)

    Good Luck to Bob! He was on the San Bernardino handling all the bug kill and a member of CIIMT 5 for awhile. Tell him to look up Dale Dague while in Washington DC. He was a former Team 5 I.C. Didn't see many antelope out of WID last week, but north of there was pretty good. Good Luck.

    That photo is captioned as being on the Taylor Bridge fire. When I left the incident on Wed, VLAT use was denied. That could have changed but i doubt it....

    Featherville is currently being evacuated. The fire is approximately at the junction of the 170 and 172 roads, prior to the burn period.
