Several large fire engines could be seen driving down Highway 330 away from the fire as fire commanders began sending crews home on Wednesday.

It was the larger type one fire engines that are used to battle structure fires that were being sent down the
mountain as threats to buildings around the fire area are diminishing.

"Almost all of the type-one engines will be gone by tonight," said Pete Jankowski, spokesman for the
fire management team.
