Grass Fire Between Whitney and Aquilla

Looking north on FM 933 from HCR 2126 as pumper trucks from several rural communities battle a large grass fire.
Units from at least five local communities fought the blaze for several hours.
The fire was confined to the east side of FM 933 near a large water tank being used to frac area gas wells.
The numerous trees and thick undergrowth made fighting this fire extremely difficult. The volunteer firefighters kept the fire from threatening several gas wells in the area.
