Engine 11 to tender 11, go right on 112 and check it out that way. Copy that, I'll turn around. A little late. Engine 11, I see we're going to turn around and head the other way. Copy that. I'm at County Road 7. I did smell some smoke going towards this end, but I'm not seeing anything. This is Tender 11. I got flames north of the highway we're on here. Just passed up the road a bit. Looks like smoke and flames, looks like a bonfire. So you're east of County Road 8. I'm at the intersection of 123 and County Road 8, and it appears to be about a quarter mile north of the intersection on the east side. Sorry, west side. Copy that. We're talking to the homeowner. There is an active burn in that area. He followed us on his side by side. All maybe like units, I turned north to tender eleven. I turned north on county road eight from 100 and twenty-three, and then turned on ferman, the road just north, and it looks to be just above over the hill. Engine eleven to IC, did you copy where our location and that we did talk to the homeowner and he's coming back to meet us. I did copy that. He is coming back to the scene there. Sounds good. 10-11 to IC, the deputies went up the hill. They're at the fire.
