Thick ash,

Yes, that is true. The fire had a fair bit of an ash bed, but it was quite lively as we came into Cumbres, and died down significantly as we headed downhill with reduced draft.

It was quite an interesting challenge to read the fire over the course of the trips as it behaved differently throughout the day,
Dave
