Morning Update: Briceburg Fire Continues to Grow as Crews Anticipate Winds
Posted by: SNO Staff October 9, 2019 - 8:42 am
MARIPOSA COUNTY — The Briceburg Fire has grown to 3,600 acres but remains only ten percent contained, according to the latest updates issued Wednesday morning.
Cal Fire officials in cooperation with the Mariposa County Sheriff’s Office and California Highway Patrol hosted a community meeting Tuesday evening.
The public meeting included updates on evacuations and the upcoming high winds predicted for Wednesday.
Currently, 37 homes are under mandatory evacuation and many are on an advisory evacuation order. Evacuation locations and advisories below.
In anticipation of the high winds, officials and fire crews from U.S. Forest Service and Cal Fire are working diligently to support lines of defense with fourteen equipment operators cutting dozer lines, nineteen water tenders pumping water to 54 engines and miles of hose lay.
Air support continues to drop retardant and eight helicopters continue bucket drops. Nearly 1000 fire personnel are assigned to the Briceburg Fire, which started Sunday afternoon.
Backfire operation continued into the night in an attempt to buffer the indirect line and burn fuel back to the black. Officials reported that some of the fire’s footprint has not burned since 1924 and is filled with decades of dead brush.
PG&E warns it could have to do a “public safety power shutoff” in the fire area as part of its new plan to prevent fallen power lines from sparking wildfires.
The National Weather Service has issued red flag warnings and fire weather watches for areas of northern, central and southern California and “CAL FIRE firefighters are staffing up and preparing for the forecasted extreme fire weather across California,” said Scott McLean, deputy chief of communications for Cal Fire.
“This will likely be the strongest offshore wind event so far this season,” McLean said. Mandatory Evacuations: Areas that are currently under a mandatory evacuation include: Addresses on Hwy. 140 between Octagon Rd. and Colorado Rd., Bug Hostel, all of Buffalo Gulch Rd. and Briceburg Campground.
Evacuation Advisory: This is NOT an Evacuation Order. This is an advisement only of a potential evacuation order should conditions change.

As reported yesterday, Katrina Poitras, disaster program manager for the American Red Cross, said the shelter “was being rolled back to being an evacuation center.”
“At noon on (Tuesday), we’ll go back on stand-by,” Poitras added. “Anyone needing shelter should call the MMU Fire Hotline at 844-668-3473.”
Cooperating agencies: Mariposa County Sheriff’s Office; California Highway Patrol; CALTRANS; California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation; U.S. Forest Service; Bureau of Land Management; American Red Cross; and additional agencies throughout the state.
CAL FIRE said the cause of the fire remains under investigation.

Briceburg Fire at 10% of 3600 Acres Contained at 7:10 AM Wednesday, Oct. 9
Briceburg fire analysis by Gary Wuchner, retired Fire Information member of Yosemite Fire Department, October, 9.:
Briceburg Fire could be affected by wild cards in the area. No fire hx since 1924; predicted high winds for 24 hrs today (Oct. 9); and, unburned fuel within Ferguson perimeters. Winds from west or northwest are fire commanders & firefighters' big concern for this fire.
But, many dozer lines, dirt roads and fired out areas from Ferguson are in Wawona's favor. That has been the objective for today in re- opening those previous lines.
The fire is aligned to run toward Jerseydale and the area of triangle road; and maybe Mariposa. Midpines will also be a threatened community.
Wawona will be fine if winds subside!
No aircraft flew today- smoke induced grounding. Maybe Hard for them to fly tomorrow with wind over 30 mph.
Also in Wawona's favor are two key ridges in place with very wide and fired out areas since Ferguson: Sweetwater and Ferguson ridges.
The command post moved to fair grounds today. Lots of resources so far. But that factor is dependent on no additional fire starts statewide.

Briceburg Fire Grows to 800 Acres, Now 10 Percent Contained
Posted by: george lurie October 8, 2019 - 7:46 am
MARIPOSA COUNTY — As dawn broke Tuesday, the news was guardedly optimistic for nearly 1,000 firefighters battling the so-called Briceburg Fire.
The blaze, which started as a 50-acre brush fire, has now increased to 800 acres, according to Cal Fire, with 10 percent containment as of 8 a.m. Tuesday.
A total of 35 hand crews, six air tankers, three helicopters, 54 engines and 14 bulldozers were attacking the blaze Tuesday morning.
The latest Cal Fire “condition” report reads: “Areas that are currently under a mandatory evacuation include addresses on Highway 140 between Octagon Road and Buffalo Gulch, Bug Hostel, all of Buffalo Gulch Road and Briceburg Campground.”
“This is NOT an Evacuation Order,” the report cautions. “This is an advisement only of a potential Evacuation Order should conditions change.”
Included in that advisement: Colorado Road from Highway 140 to Davis Road; all of Davis Road; Highway 140 from Colorado Road to Midpines Market, Ponderosa Way including all side roads; Deer Park, Leichtlin Lane, Feliciana Mountain Road Rancheria Creek Road and Rumley Mine.
Road Highway 140 is closed from Colorado Road to Savages Trading Post,” Cal Fire also reported.
Tuesday morning, the fire was still growing within a rough perimeter contained by Bear Creek and the Merced River. The fire has been moving steadily southeast towards Ponderosa Road and Buffalo Gulch, with steep, isolated terrain making it difficult for firefighters to access the blaze and cut fire lines.
County officials late Monday also opened a Red Cross evacuation center at the New Life Christian Church in Bootjack. On Tuesday morning, officials at the shelter said only one person had come in so far.
Katrina Poitras, disaster program manager for the American Red Cross, said Tuesday just after 9 a.m. that the shelter “was being rolled back to being an evacuation center.”
“At noon, we’ll go back on stand-by” status, Poitras said, adding: “Anyone needing shelter should call the MMU Fire Hotline at 844-668-3473.”
On Tuesday, more than 900 firefighters from agencies across the state were attacking the fire, which is burning near the area where the Ferguson Fire scorched a total of 96,000 acres in 2018. On Monday, bulldozer crews were reworking one of the southwest fire lines from the Ferguson Fire.

YOSEMITE-WAWONA ELEMENTARY CHARTER SCHOOL LOOKING FOR BOARD MEMBER
The Board of Directors is currently made up of 3 individuals. This number, while adequate to conduct the business of the Charter, can be impacted by the absence of members. Two new board members will be added to the current 3 member board. The current charter says this about the make-up of the Board:
The Board of Directors will be composed of representatives of the following constituencies:
a. Parents of the Y-WECS students
b. Community members
Board of Directors members serve terms of two years. As far as possible, the two year terms are staggered so that one half of the members shall assume office every 2 years.
Each Board of Director member shall be a person who has demonstrated commitment to the education of the students in the Y-WECS and who understands the importance of the school to the community it serves.
Any person qualified to be a Board of Director member may be nominated by a current Board of Director member. Nominations for the board of Directors shall be presented to the Board by any Director or community member at any meeting of the Board of Directors.
The role of a Board member at Y-WECS is complicated by the fact that Board members are asked to help with the running of the school in many ways. It must be remembered that parent involvement with the school is critical to its success. At the same time, sensitivity to the desires of the community members who are a great source of financial support for the school must be acknowledged.
If you are interested in serving on the board of Yosemite-Wawona Elementary Charter School, please contact:

Visitor Dies After Falling From the Half Dome Cables
(CNN) A Yosemite National Park visitor died after falling from the cables at the Half Dome on Thursday morning, according to National Park officials.
29-year-old Danielle Burnett, from Lake Havasu City, Arizona, fell over 500 feet down a rocky surface and was pronounced dead when the Park Rangers arrived on the scene, National Park Public Affairs Officer Scoot Gediman said in a statement to CNN.
The incident is under investigation.
One of Burnett's family members posted on Facebook confirming the loss, "It's with a broken heart to inform you all that our beautiful Danielle left us yesterday doing something she loved so much... this will take time."
The last death on the famous Half Dome was in May of 2018, when a hiker slipped and fell during dangerous weather conditions. It was the first incident since 2010.
The famous landmark in Yosemite is a 14 to 16 mile round trip hike that ends with a 400 foot cable climb up to the top of the rock formation, according to the park's website. A guide for hikers strongly indicates caution when climbing the cables, and notes that "since 1919, relatively few people have fallen and died on the cables. However, injuries are not uncommon for those acting irresponsibly."The cables are only up from about May to October due to weather, and permits are required to make the hike.
Since only 300 hikers are allowed to make the climb a day, when the cables are in use, the permits are based on a preseason lottery and daily application lotteries. 75 of the 300 hiking spots are reserved for backpackers and those staying overnight on the trail.
