I just seen one of the big grey airtankers flying South above Highway 287 tipping its wings as if to say goodbye. Not sure if thats what it was up to or not but the bulk of the High Park fire is under control so thats my guess as it's probably heading to the Waldo fire (hopefully that one and not a new one).

If so, a big thanks to them and all of those involved in fighting and still up here seeing it to the end. Had a lot of coworkers and a few friends affected by this one.

Hey, wheres the hero for the day icon anyway? [Beer]

The were flying out of Rocky Mountain airport. High Park is now 100% contained so I imagine they're headed south.
