CH-47D with water (I think) flying generally north over the Rincon Valley - seems far away but the only active fire I know of is a small fire near the bioshpere.

The Box fire started on 6/13 and from the Rincon Valley smoke and tankers dropping fire retardant were visible all day. On 6/14 the fire is apparently still visible from other locations but the red fire retardant on the ridge is really all that is visible from the Rincon Valley.
