"Raw" is not an acronym, abbreviation, nor a proper noun; thus, it should not be in capital letters.

Man...when I started getting my email blasts from the NPS, I didn't realize how big this one was, til the last email blast of the night.

Sure hope the fire is brought under control today by using the tanker & helicopter that were brought in, now that the winds have died down.

Six weeks later and the fire is still burning.

Too bad about the fires, but otherwise nice photos.

Interesting shots. #2 is very dramatic. Like them both.

Believe it or not, this fire was officially declared extinguished today - 8 months after it started.
