I don't give out specific route information, my belief is that it takes away from the whole adventure spirit of a trip, if you need every inch planned out, you'll have to get that from someone else.

Dixie Fire 8/10 Update
487,764 Acres & 25% Contained, Fire remained active overnight due to limited humidity recovery. Heavy smoke settled into the fire area as diurnal winds were very light, causing firelines to be difficult to scout and identify. Despite cooler temperatures, fuel conditions were slow to react, allowing nearby complete consumption of the heavy fuels.

Hobart Fire 8/11
Stanislaus NF:
Fireline was completed around the fire yesterday and is currently holding at an estimated 22 acres. Frequent spotting in heavy down fuels and standing snags combined with limited access by boat or aircraft is making containment challenging. Fire crews and helicopters will drop water and work towards securing the perimeter today.

Tamarack Fire Update 8/11
InciWeb:
Sierra Front Type 3 Incident Management Team 1
Scott Stephenson, Incident Commander
Information Phone: 775-434-8629 (public and media)
Email: 2021.tamarack@firenet.gov
Information Staffing Hours: 8 a.m. to 8 p.m.
Current Situation: Total containment is 82%. The strategy for this fire continues to be full suppression using a combination of containment in Divisions K, O and Q and confinement in Division A. Helicopters will continue to support firefighters with buckets of water on hot spots as weather and smoke conditions permit.
Two suppression repair groups are working on priority areas to minimize impacts of fire suppression activities on natural and cultural resources. Crews are repairing dozer and hand lines to prevent soil erosion and water channeling. They are also removing hazard trees. Hazard trees are fire-damaged and likely to fall on a road or developed site, threatening firefighter and public safety.
Divisions K and O – Divisions K and O have been combined and are now in a patrol status. Two engines and a Type 1 hand crew will be supporting the suppression repair crews and watching for hot spots, especially near communities. Engines and the hand crew will also continue mopping up as needed along the fire perimeter ensure containment near homes and structures.
Division Q – Two hand crews are working to strengthen the existing containment line and continue to mop up.
.
Division A –Two self-sufficient wildland fire modules and an additional hand crew are assigned to Division A. Because of the extremely steep, rugged terrain and the lack of fire movement, firefighters are using a suppression strategy of confinement in this area. Firefighters on the ground, supported by aircraft, are ready to act in the unlikely event the fire crosses established Management Action Points in the surrounding rocky terrain. Helicopter reconnaissance flights, infrared mapping, and time-lapse cameras assist with observation 24 hours a day.
Weather and Fuel Conditions: Smoke and haze will continue today, with light and variable winds in the morning. 15% chance of thunderstorms in the afternoon. The predicted high is 93 degrees, with relative humidity as low as 15%. Fuels remain very dry.
Closures, and Fire Restrictions: For closures and fire restrictions on National Forest lands, visit: https://www.fs.usda.gov/alerts/htnf/alerts-notices.

Hobart Fire 8/12
Stanislaus NF:
Refined mapping yesterday shows the fire to be estimated at 26 acres. Crews will continue to improve the control line around the fire, search for spot fires, and mop up the perimeter with ground and air firefighting resources.
