Volk Station on Mountaine Road.

Hello.
00:15
A man,
00:16
908, you knew that from 9E, where do you want us to come into?
00:23
I mean, y'all got the gator, don't you?
00:29
Hey, firm.
00:32
Go straight on down,
00:35
just take to the right of Mount Eden, take that first little hunting camp road to the left, and you can chase in behind the fire with that gator.
00:44
We're sitting out here in front of the way to put to get the Mount Eden, but y'all might can do something with it coming from the back side with that gator. We didn't have any more hose to get through it over that side.
00:56
How about, I got a pile of Forestry Hills on this truck off of.
01:03
When I get there, I'll figure out where you at.
01:05
I was going to come out on the 121 on Hollywood Road and come in on Pine Pleasant. Would that be my best bet?
01:15
Yeah, I think so. I think you're right.
01:22
Grab it out. I just talked Forestry one.
01:27
He said you got one unit coming. I know you may have two. I don't know what the deal is with one of the ones with William.
01:33
And he's going to come that way too.
01:37
Tim, well, Lauren called me early on if we need William, that he'd have to go get his tractor. So I told him to go ahead and head this away.
01:46
If we didn't need him, I'd turn him around. But I'd go and bring him out.
01:54
John with that, he's coming on out.
01:56
How many oaks you've got him now in you playing?
02:02
It's probably burnt, maybe close to two acres so far,
02:06
and the really hot spots where it was jumping up in the small trees, we got it knocked down,
02:12
just crawling right now.
02:14
But if it gets get back up in these small pines, they're about eight-foot tall.
02:18
If it does, we don't have trouble on our hands.
02:23
Cut it up.
02:30
So you all know, it's going further down.
02:34
And I'm looking at it. The focus on more towards the bottom that towards the creek is it appears.
02:43
Maybe another hundred hundred and a yard.
02:48
Yeah, 104, that's why I sent the gator in there if we y'all at.
02:51
If you can get down in there and probably get ahead of some of that.
02:56
If it comes on, if we can keep it up the hill,
03:00
we got Mountaineer Road here as a break and we're sitting here waiting on it.
03:08
104, I'm staged behind you.
03:09
Y'all got, we got any water out here?
03:15
There should be a couple of water bottles room temperature on each truck.
