Biscuit Complex
The Malheur Complex, along with the Biscuit Complex fires, have been top concerns for the coordination center in Portland.
Burning 17 miles southwest of Cave Junction, the Biscuit Complex has burned 17,750 acres and is zero percent contained. Firefighters there are asking for assistance from the Type-One firefighting team, an elite unit.
There are 734 firefighters at the Biscuit Complex. The blaze jumped the Illinois River on Wednesday night and headed south. It threatens homes at Oak Flats, and firefighters have been moved back to safety zones.
This is the pride of the ONRC and other Eco Facists re a wilderness where there are no roads, no harvesting of even dead trees. This was the crown jewel of the no nothing eco Fascists in the Oregon area.
When a fire jumps a river, it is really bad folks!
There is knapweed in southern Oregon. I would bet that some of the firefighters are from Montana and Idaho where the stuff runs rampant. I have been told of fire camps where it came up thick wherever there was a tent. If they sprinkle the seed around on their boots and knapweed gets established, it will spread on the wind after this fire into a perfect growing medium. They may never get it back.
Never.
