Having been out on the lines of the Station Fire, I can tell you that it's a monster. The media can describe it's size with as much imagery as they want, but until you have to drive from one side of it to the other, the immensity just doesn't hit home. It took me almost an hour to drive from base camp up Soledad Canyon and into Aliso Canyon. This thing is truly unbelievable.<br /><br />Jody Mike,
