about 50 acres in Franklin County.
TAKE FS MAP E616 TAKE FS MAP

The fire is on the north face of
Turkeycock Mountain, near the Henry
County border.

Operations were called off last
night because the helicopter being used

can't fly at night, and the steep
terrain made it too difficult for
firefighters.

Officials say it likely started
from a lightning strike during an
isolated thunderstorm yesterday.

No homes are in danger at this
time.

Nelson County after the board of

shooting range on Orion's property near
Wingina win-JY-nuh.


Orion claims the denial violates
the constitutional right to hunt and
fish ... the county says it's a land
use issue, and that shooting clay
targets is "not" the same as hunting
live game.

The judge will visit the estate
tomorrow for a demonstration of both
