Re: Brown Fire closes Miller Canyon HG/PG
A great source of intel for fires in the area and throughout the nation can be found by googling "sit report". It's the situation report for the nation and includes the hard data. Only the large fires make it on the report and the Brown is just large enough to get on it.
