WILDFIRE OUTSIDE OF LAS VEGAS, NV - nozzleman - 07-05-2013 Ok I have been posting updates in Fire Service Related not knowing where else to post. The Carpenter Canyon 1 fire is up to over 8000 achers right now and is threatening 400 homes. I have lived in the Las Vegas Valley for years and this is the worst wild fire that I remember in the area. Here is a video that Appreared on of the New Stations. Take a look. I live at East Lake Mead Blvd and Pecos Road and I can see the collum of smoke from the fire very clearly. Tom I plan on taking a road trip to Ann Rd and Fort Apache and getting some pictures but here is the video and the link to the article. Listening to the scanner this morning I could hear City of Las Vegas, Clark County and other departments being moved up to the fire area. I know several units moved up to Station 81 and being staged in the area. Station 81 is the Mount Charleston Station. http://www.ktnv.com/news/local/214400701.html http://www.lasvegassun.com/news/2013/jul/04/voluntary-evacuations-urged-residents-near-mount-c/#axzz2Y2h6ycAk http://youtu.be/_QRJbz4U49I WILDFIRE OUTSIDE OF LAS VEGAS, NV - hank - 07-05-2013 Good video! tHANKs WILDFIRE OUTSIDE OF LAS VEGAS, NV - nozzleman - 07-05-2013 Thanks Hank but I cannot take credit for it.
