Last year #CaliforniaWildFires Cal Fire’s Airtanker Reload Base at McClellan Park in Sacramento played a significant role in air attacks, MCC, as it is affectionately known by my #avgeek #wildfire friends. On this particular day, 12 Large & Very Large Airtankers were filled with 38 loads, including 195,119 gallons of retardant for the #MosquitoFire & 19,883 for the #DutchFire. Here’s the Timelapse vid of airtankers taxiing in/out of the retardant pits that day…#AvgeeksofMastodon

And final stop on this tour: Lake Tahoe and the surrounding Sierra.

Snow-packed mountains, dark blue Lake Tahoe, and -look carefully - you can see the portions of 2022 #MosquitoFire burn scar in Placer/El Dorado Counties below the snowline. #CAwx

Now, PG&E motion #3-- they want to exclude evidence of other fires than the #ZoggFire and the other 3 smaller fires charged as reckless arsons in this manslaughter case.

PG&E power lines have sparked large, destructive fires in 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021, and is suspected of the #MosquitoFire in 2022.

They also sparked fires in the 1990's and a PG&E gas line caused the San Bruno explosion in 2010.
