Mountain people hate to ask for help...
As of last information, 13 confirmed fatalities, 1400+ buildings destroyed, and thousands of acres of our beautiful mountain land burned over. All resulting from a small fire in steep terrain in the GSMNP that was allowed to burn for several days before it was hit with 80+ mph wind that spread it for miles.
So much for the NPS "fire management" strategy.
