Division Zulu from IC, I was just trying to get an update on conditions. We ordered a hand crew, probably going to be working with you. And it looks like the copter was making a drop on that spot fire. Let me know how that goes. Yeah, I copy. I'm just getting an access to Zulu right now. Stand by for an update.

Last unit, were you trying to reach Division Zulu? Division Zulu from IC. Do you have an update on conditions? And we did order a hand crew to assist in the cutting line or getting any of the trees we need to cut down. Update on conditions. We're punching in lateral lines. We have the eastern progression stopped. We're working from the eastern side towards the southern side. Still doing a progressive hold.

Copter 3 from IC, go ahead. Yeah, just so everybody can hear it. 3, you're just about an acre and a half, medium to low rate of spread, pretty much just as you described it. We've got one spot fire out to the east end in a bush that we'll clean up when we come back on this next one. Just have your crews continue working towards the original plan of attack. I'll give you an update when we get back. I'm going to go ahead and recommend that we just work this with Copter 3. If you could go ahead and cancel that.
