First fire of concern for me this year. #IdahoFire

I'm out of town for a funeral, so I won't be doing a deep dive, but the #BenchLakeFire has burned 2 acres at Bench Lakes in the Sawtooth Wilderness near Redfish Lake. I was on that ridge 1/2 mile from this spot last week. It's fairly green at 8,000' still, but given the heat, red flag conditions, and forest health, it's concerning. I'm guessing they'll get it contained during initial attack, but if not... 😬

In the time it took me to write that post, Air Attack arrived overhead. That's.... not a great sign for a quick and easy Initial Attack fire. #BenchLakeFire
