Thanks, turns out I mistook SR 120 for the Foresthill Road out of Auburn.

Do you know where MAFFS 4 is staging?
I noticed parts 1 & 2 got merged as duplicates- I wondered where they went.
The Sierras certainly give the terrain sensors fits.."landing gear, altitude" going over the ridge.

Great audio, I wonder if the pilot wishes there was a landing gear alert override button to keep the noise level down (for those type of fire runs).
