104, pumper 33, inverse 33. Brush, continue in. One pumper and car 104, others can be in service. Brush, continue, we'll hold this command in the pumper, others can be in service. 527, back in service.

104, this is 27. Are you guys on Blue Ridge? That's affirmative. We're on Blue Ridge, but we're looking for better access. But I don't think we're going to be able to get a fire truck down here. Looks like they got everything blocked off. Brush plug probably will be the best tool. Yeah, we were at that dead end on 9th Street. It's going to be hard to get a brush plug even back there. We accessed it off of Blue Ridge here. We're back here now. Copy that.

Yeah, Channel 4's on the scene. Go ahead and start me a brush buggy this way. We're establishing Blue Ridge Command. He's going to try to find a way. Everything's blocked off. Those roads that go back in there, I'm not exactly sure how they get to them. Maybe 27's aware. Yeah, it looks like there's a, originally there was a place off of maybe 23rd Street down there, but we're back here now, but it's going to be tough. It's going to be probably easily accessible for a brush buggy.
