Smokehouse Creek Fire
Looks like the Adobe Walls battle area is involved in the Smokehouse Creek fire. Turkey Track Ranch devastated by fire. Can anyone from Texas confirm?

Re: Smokehouse Creek Fire
That would be a shame. But it’s been dry and very windy.

Re: Smokehouse Creek Fire
It started very near there. I can't imagine the monument or Billy Dixon's grave could have been seriously damaged.
Re: Smokehouse Creek Fire
Have not been out there. Hope that dinosaur outside of Canadian is OK.

Re: Smokehouse Creek Fire
Fitting tribute to the old frontiersman, Scott.
That fire is now at 1,075,000 acres and has run all the way east across the Oklahoma border and only 5 percent contained. And more red flag conditions are due this weekend. Praying for those firefighters and all in harm's way.

Re: Smokehouse Creek Fire
The area I work is just north of Canadian, lots of damage to farms, oil and gas structures, fences, outbuilidings.......toward Canadian.
I cannot confirm about the area you are asking about, most of the field hands I talk to are closer to Beaver Ok and Liberal Ks.

Re: Smokehouse Creek Fire
Prayers up. Wish we could send you some of our rain. I'm considering building an ark...
