Is that the dam on the lake north of Ogallala? I know a guy that retired and lives in that area. Horrible!!
The sandhills are beautiful, but I wouldn't want to try and drive a fire truck around in them.

Yes, I think it was a pic from the camera the irrigation district owns

30 miles by 30 miles is 90 square miles so that's a pretty big fire!! You'd think if a mostly grass or prairie area you'd be able to save a lot of farms but IDK?

It's been forever since any measurable amount of moisture here in the sandhills . The county roads are not like in S.D. or N.D. ,they are far and few between, can't drive heavy trucks in the hills with out getting stuck, the sand is more like sand blasting sand , fine as sugar 60-70 mph wids didn't help

I'm guessing tall stubble and pasture. The downfall of no till , They should at least strip farm it or do some tillage for fire control.
