Figure 3 -- Aerial photograph of fire site. The perspective is looking southeast across the West Drainage toward the West Flank. The West Flank Fireline can be seen as a faint trail approximately in the center of the photograph. The Lunch Spot Ridge runs from H-1 through the Lunch Spot to a point near the bottom of the drainage. The Colorado River Gorge runs east to west and is behind H-1 and the Ignition point. H-2 is located northeast along the Main Ridge, off the left side of the picture.
