I thought I would post this link - it is a short ODOT video showing some of the burned area on 224 east/south of Estacada. It give you a small idea of what the burned area looks like:
We went out yesterday to get our first look at the damage to OR 224 east of @CityofEstacada after the #RiversideFire. Lots of down trees & debris, a few landslides, lots of burned barriers, signs down, heavy smoke & small fires still burning in the area. #oregonwildfires2020 pic.twitter.com/mLkUzmVePH

If anyone finds any other photos or videos from inside the burn area I would appreciate if you posted links to them here.
I found a couple of aerial photos of Opal Creek showing most of it burned - posted on the Opal Creek facebook page:

I tried to post them directly here but I'm guessing facebook blocked them.
Most of the buildings burned it sounds like, but one cabin is still standing.

That outhouse was concrete - I wouldn't think it could burn.
If you go to inciweb and click on the full size photo you can see some more detail - I'm thinking there might have been some sort of carport like thing back behind the ranger station - and that burned - but I'm not sure:

Look at the photo here http://www.ruckerworks.com/201.....much-snow/ It shows that there was a large building next to the store which doesn't appear on the inciweb photo. Also on Google Earth:
Looks like that pile of debris is the remains of that building. It was a lot bigger than an outhouse!
This was posted to the Forest Service Facebook page a couple days ago - it is aerial footage of the Fish Creek drainage - it is kind of a sobering video:
Another video from the Promontory Park Facebook page showing 224 to Promontory park -doesn't look too bad:

And a picture:
Another facebook posting on the Forest Service website with some photos of a couple of campgrounds and an aerial shot:

This map shows the latest satellite imagery (like Google Maps). You need to search Estacada then scroll down to the burn area. It is sobering.

Wow - that's all I have to say - just WOW.
