    Thank you for the report. My dad was with CDF for 30+ years so this is in my blood. Your explanations are much clearer than their reports and contain details we care about.
  • Thank you for your videos, we watch every time you upload one. Thank you

    Thank you, Zeke. Another fabulous video. And much food for thought that I had never even considered - the massive amounts of herbicide applied to the burned-over hillsides, to help the young trees to grow without competition. Thinking about all of that herbicide draining down the watershed and into the local streams and then on into the rivers. . . And, of course, the rivers supply much of the drinking water for millions of Central Valley residents. . . kind of makes my blood run cold. Thank you for yet another in-depth and informative stream.

    Thank you for these videos. I keep looking for news to give all my distant friends and relatives worried about us, and you give the best information. Your perspective is more helpful than others. It is appreciated.

    Realistic outlook, Zeke. Amazing work on that fireline! That next terrain looks hard to hold. Safety first to all our firefighters with our gratitude! ❤
  • @HermitThrush345
    We're stuck in the wildfire paradox -- agencies are spending so much money on reactive suppression with associated adverse impacts, which could be used so much more effectively on landscape-scale prescribed fire to build fire resiliency.

    Terrific info. I've been sharing your videos for years! Especially this week. Thanks for broadcasting / updating during your vacation
  • @RosemaryReed
    Great content from a reliable source, thank you for the work you do

    Paradise, Carr, Delta, Dixie, Park, we just can't seem to wake up from this nightmare. Thanks Zeke.😊
  • I enjoy your realism. Truly. My hunting partner is a 70 year old Vietnam Veteran and I’m a 52 year old Desert Storm Vet. We beat all that bush in his Jeep last year and had a bad feeling it would be on fire this year. Have a bunch of pictures of Sierra Pacific’s “kindling” piles all over up there just waiting for this special moment. All the decades we’ve been up there, never seen such a thing. As if it was all set up for failure. You do fantastic analysis. Keep up the wonderful work.

    Thanks! We are terrified for Warner Valley and Chester. You put our minds more at ease. Praying constantly for Forest Ranch and Butte Meadows!

    There’s no information out there like yours. Thank you Zeke, you do an excellent job reporting the realities of fighting this Park fire.
  • @HermitThrush345
    SPI perpetuating all that acreage of fire-susceptible forest should be illegal. And then they expect agencies to defend those lands from wildfire? It doesn't make sense.
  • @Juniperhillfarm7
    Thank you once again. Great report! Didn’t know that about the herbicide. All that going right into the watershed!! 🤯
  • @merrywalsh2809
    Glad I found you. You are such an expert. Love the deep dive. I used to live in Chico. Now I live three miles from what used to be the town of Lahaina, on Maui.
  • @LoganFillmore
    Great work. Thanks for the help! Many more people are seeing these videos now!

    Sac was 75 yesterday! What a gift right in the middle of this firefight.
