Crews made progress on containment line yesterday and expected to make more headway today (Thursday). Firefighters on the west side of the fire found no heat within 120 to 200 feet into the interior of the fire. To prepare the southwest side of the fire for patrol status, firefighters are beginning to remove hose and equipment. On the northwest end of the fire, crews are focused on areas still holding heat within 120 feet of the fireline. Firefighters are locating and extinguishing areas of remaining heat with hoses, engines, skidgines, and water tenders. On the northeast and east portions of the fire, firefighters work to secure the edge of the fire and increase containment.
