Title: All our New Mexico members accounted for and safe?
Post by: Brad Johnson on May 19, 2022, 09:43:58 AM
What with the wildfire outbreak in New Mexico, figured it would be a good idea to check in on our NM members. Y'all all okay and somewhere safe?

SWMBO's stepson's wife's family has a cabin between Tres Ritos and Mora. Fireline made it to within fifty yards of the back door. Fortunately the location in a small valley with a bunch of other cabins meant a hotshot crew was assigned to the area for property protection. A good friend's brother has a cabin just outside Tres Ritos and the fireline made it to within a mile. Both areas are still rife with hot spots so not out of danger yet.

Hermit's Peak/Calf Canyon fire is up to 303,000 acres with 34% containment. Cerro Pelado fire is 45,000 @ 75% containment. Black fire is 77,000 @ 0% contained.

I drove through Northern New Mexico last month.  Looked dry as hell.  Lots of grass in the Eastern part, but all brown.
