Yarnell Wildfire
19 firefighters killed and 250 structures lost in the area. The AZ Cobras have a special love for this little town and this is some terrible news.

Prayers to all
This was quite a shock to me. My Bro-in-law is a firefighter in Utah.
Prayers to all those who passed, and to their families.

I am a former AZ DPS officer. I also grew up with our family having a cabin in Crown King which is in the same general area. I love it there.
My thoughts and prayers are with the families. Very sad.

There was a photo in today's AZ Republic of a firetruck spraying the roof of our favorite restaurant we eat at up there in Yarnell to insure it survives.

I just got home from a weekend in Colorado. We heard about this driving through New Mexico. My heart goes out to all the firefighters familys.

I had friends that lived there, right off the highway, for many years but are now in Prescott. Their son still lives there outside the town in a small trailer on a couple acres but I haven't heard anything about whether he was affected or not.

That looks like a preemptive measure. I certainly hope so.

Once the fire is out, I plan on taking a ride up there.

That fire and the deaths are really tragic. We had 6 deaths here in our last fire which was about the same as what happened there except not nearly so many. I have been trying to keep up with it but our so called local news sucks. All they want to talk about is what they did last weekend.
I hope that they can soon get it contained and the town doesn't burn completely. We lost one whole town and over half of another in our last big fire a couple of years ago.
Best wishes to all of you and my prayers for the ones who died and their families.

I'm in Prescott. All 19 of the Hot Shots killed are from here.; took out 20% of our firefighters. The town is just devastated/heartbroken by this; puts a real wrinkle in the 4th and the Rodeo celebrations, which are normally happy events for the town. Went to a town meeting yesterday; everyone is pitching in, families will be well taken care of by local and national help, but that's little compensation for their loss.
If you've a mind to assist in any way, either to the firefighter's families or the Yarnell folks, good, legit options are to be found at: Granite Mountain Hotshots - City of Prescott, Arizona.
