    My buddy took a load of rims up there for kaltire today. Said the same thing that you can hardly breathe going threw there and cops at every exit off the road.

    Do you need approval to travel through town on 63 or is it open to through traffic? I'd rather drive to camp than fly when the time comes.

    He said stay in the left lane and your good to go. If you want to stop in town you have to stop at there road check, get approval. Then show approval to the cop at the exit your getting off at.

    Just heard they evacuated 4000 people from 12 work camps up to and including Ruth Lake Lodge. Guess the winds are kicking up north towards the sites. News report said fire is spreading 30-40 meters a minute.
