IRIN Comments on imagery:
4 strips provided (ortho/color/tiff/raw heat/mosaic).  Imagery clear, no humidity.   Due to steep terrain in east end of box, geo-rectification causes overlap in strips 2 &3 to be reduced.  Had a small gap next to head of fire at Waterman Mt .   	Weather at time of flight:
clear, dry

	Flight Objective:
 map heat perimeter and spots

Comments /notes on tonight’s mission and this interpretation: Burnout between Alder Saddle and Chilao was completed (begun yesterday).   Heat had not progressed very wide, but I included it all in the heat perimeter, leaving a large, unburned area within the heat perimeter south of Pacifico Mt.    This area was included in the heat perimeter acres shown above.   The acres of growth shown above included this unburned area.    I added a polygon to the .pdf displaying this unburned area.    I also added to this unburned shapefile the 2 large unburned areas displayed on the 8/31/2009 .pdf (minus some small areas of them that had burned since 8/31).

Large area of growth with intense heat between Twin Peaks and the previous burnout along Hwy 2, west of Three Points.  Two relatively large spot fires were in front of the main head west of Waterman Mt. (37 and 13 acres).   

Heat perimeter extended southward to the north shore of Cogswell Reservoir, with small areas of intense heat along the leading edge (downhill side).   A small strip of heat that appears to be an attempted burnout to straighten out a  dogleg in the perimeter was along the ridge between Chileno Canyon and Devils Canyon.   It ran from south to north, but was not quite connected with the northside of the dogleg at the time of the flight.

Very minor growth along the perimeter west of Cogswell Reservoir to the dozer line.

A few isolated heat sources were within the perimeter of the previous Mt. Wilson burnout .

No perimeter growth elsewhere, and only isolated heat sources scattered through the remainder of the fire.
