as we were heading southbound on AZ95 at about 5:00pm on sunday.............
I just happen to look over at Echo lodge when there was some dust or smoke blowin' across towards Echo. I then realized that is was smoke coming from the Sundance area. We turn down onto the business AZ95 and sure as shit, Sundance was on fire! We pulled over and let Buckskin FD do there thing. They had 2 fireman on that rig and 1 more fireman on the way. THAT'S IT!!!!!3 total!!!! That is a big place for what little of manpower. Luckily they were able to get a descent knockdown with 3 of them. Those guys would have been up a creek if that would have been in the middle of the night.
It may have not of been a bad thing if it burned to the ground but, That is an Icon for the people who have visited the Strip for years.
