The Hullcar Mountain wildfire remains burning out of control.
Trudy Schweb owns a fifth-generation ranch in the Hullcar area, directly below the Hullcar Mountain wildfire.
“Warren's mom and dad used to range cattle up here, and Warren was born and raised here. So he knows the mountain like the back of his hand. So he knows exactly where all the roads are, but there was no way that we could get to it, so we were kind of hooped that way," she said. “We're just going to chase them down the driveway and put them out in the hay field so they'll be safe there but until then, they're OK where they're at," Schweb said.
