This was NOT a major fire and may have been caused by careless disposal of smoking material at a party at this location last night.

Lesley--I wondered about the 721 fire. Are you aware if there is any investigation going on into that fire?

Exactly. I have the video of the burning decks - it was texted to me but can’t figure out how to post it either

Here is a Facebook link to a photographer that took pictures of the party - amazing party - but what if fire broke out during it.

If there is a share option on your phone for texts you could copy the link through that. I can do that on my Android. Hold finger on Video link and the share option should pop up.

Try this. It's posted on a private page I belong to but appears to be by a public poster.

According to this morning's Daily Herald, it was a bush fire that destroyed the deck by the bar. The firefighters went up the ski lift with water bags and were able to refill them from a small water reservoir at the site. Took 5-6 hours to extinguish.

Surprised it was a brush fire, since, from what I understand, it has been pretty wet recently.

The way the wind blows up there, it would dry out in no time after a rain shower or two.
