[QUOTE="Dave, post: 1691931, member: 498"] I was talking to my neighbor about this Bootleg fire. He has a good friend who ranches on what would be the western edge of the fire. I said it is a good thing that fire is going to the east. He said at last count they had found 50 dead cows. The cost of this fire is going to be huge. It is burning Forest Circus ground and sparsely populated ranch country. But at last count 67 homes gone. Over double that in "other structures". Undoubtedly a huge number of cows. Millions of board feet of timber both public and private. There is 2,250 personal fighting the fire, a couple hundred engines, a lot of aircraft. The leading edge is over 20 miles wide. Directly in line is the little town of Paisley less than 10 miles in front of it. The only good news is once it gets past there it will run out of timber. From Paisley on to the east is nothing but sage brush and grass for 100+ miles. It will be easier to fight and stop out in that country. [/QUOTE]
