Howdy, fellow modlers!

Just had to share this little jem from the land of the seriously wacked

An arsonist, reportedly armed, was seen lighting fires from near the shore of Hetch Hetchy Reservior up to Tiltill Valley, after brandishing the weapon in front of backcountry hikers. The hikers were unharmed and initial attack NPS helitack forces made contact and evacuated them from the fire area. After accounting for all nearby backcountry visitors, Park Rangers are searching the fire area for the arsonist, who is said to have been using a small propane torch of some kind. The arsonist remains unapprehended at this hour. The fire is burning in a remote portion of Yosemite Wilderness with a recent hisory of nearby fires. Abundant natural barriers, ongoing law enforcement operations, and a forecast for rain early next week have all contributed to the use of a confinement strategy to achieve suppression objectives.

Ain't it cool? These guys make my job SO much fun I could just........well, you pick the adjective!

Later!
