Tied for second place at -12 after the 20-foot birdie drops on the last! What a round of golf today. The clubhouse leader with a round of 66 and will be at the top of the mix entering the final round in Illinois. Let's go 👏

Here's @calfireSCU Mt. Hamilton Crew FC Eric Hoffmann (Level C Faller) cutting a hazardous tree in Cohasset. The core of this cedar tree is on fire. If the tree is close to a road, near where people live, or where crews are working, it must be cut. #ParkFire

@530BruceRoss Don't forget the alleged arsonist. He's the leader in the clubhouse.

For the first time in five years, my return to #Chico, downtown scene, PV class of ‘84 the event coming up … Catching up here w/ the great @DavidLittleNVCF (who got me my first job in newspapers, 40 years ago this month @ChicoER), after I drove from Boise to ChicoVille yesterday. Madison Bear Garden in the mix … @reviewjournal

Sunrise at Colby Mountain, above Butte Meadows, looking towards the Lake Almanor Basin. Wildfires unfortunately make for beautiful sunrises. Be safe out there today. #ParkFire

When fire strikes and evacuations become vital, North Valley Animal Disaster Group's volunteers are among the first to show up, there to assist in the evacuations of animals of all kinds. The Park Fire is no different.

@MichaelWX18 @Pyrogeographer Well there you go @susie_c

[David Little @DavidLittleNVCF]

@susie_c Agreed. I also keep thinking of Paul Maslin, who pulled poison oak by hand and invasives up there for years. All that work.

The drip of sad news from the #ParkFire continues. A message from Chico State President Steve Perez said the fire decimated most of the 7,835-acre Big Chico Creek Ecological Reserve, including the old barn and old house just above Big Chico Creek.

The Butte County Sheriff Office is reducing a portion of the order in zone 312 A to an EVACUATION WARNING. This will include Cohasset Rd, Rock Creek Rd, and Sycamore Valley.

[David Little @DavidLittleNVCF]

If a monster is coming and you need to draw a line in the sand, so to speak, do it with a bulldozer. What they cleared is a bunch of head-high, very flammable manzanita.

[David Little @DavidLittleNVCF]

Look at the bulldozers cutting defensible space around the Colby Mountain lookout. They're not messing around. #ParkFire
