My wife and I stayed in Mariposa last night on our way back from the Santa Barbara area. We picked up some command traffic on on either the forest or admin nets of the Stanislaus NF (STF). I think a NIFC system was probably in place as the amount of traffic on the STF frequencies was minimal. When the fire crossed the Cherry road it triggered action from both the Forest Service and Park Service. Evacuations of both employees and visitors in the Camp Mather, Hetch Hetchy and Eleanor Lake areas were begun. This was being coordinated on Yosemite's law enforcement and park nets on the North Mountain repeaters.
SAR personnel were being paged out from the Tuolumne Meadows area as we left the park. The fire net was busy as well as the park picked up a couple of small fires, both of which were being suppressed as the national preparedness level is 5.
The Rim Fire is not all that large at this point, but for some reason it has both a Type I and Type II team assigned to it. It would seem as though resources are in short supply and using two teams on a fire of this size doesn't make sense to me.
We saw a lot of fire apparatus on the 101, 120 and 395 going both ways. I saw the Vandenberg Hotshots headed south on the 101 just north of Paso Robles. Incident commanders my have no choice but to keep resources on fires for 21 days, after they get two days of R and R following 14 days on an incident.
The coming days may find some "sleepers" or "holdovers" popping up. These are fires started by lightning during rain and humidity that smoulder on the ground or inside dead trees that become active when it begins to dry out. I've heard of 30 day sleepers and personally witnessed 18 days between a lightning strike and the fire being sighted by a lookout. The moisture content of the larger fuels (3" - 8" diameter) will not rise much as a result of the last 4-5 days of rain.
