Plumes of smoke behind the mountains are the fire that's in this area. It may reach this lake according to one of the local residents in a couple of days depending on the weather conditions, wind, rain, etc.
Planes land here to get water. They scoop it up and then take back off. The did this over and over again today as Terry was fishing. There were two planes, one following the other.
As the plane ascends over Terry's heard in the background. He caught 8 rainbows today!
Here the plane is dumping the water it just picked up in the lake. The fire is pretty close. Not sure how many acres this has burned so far. There are 80 fires in Alaska and 16 have crews working, with hot shot crews from the lower 48 states helping.
