http://inciweb.nwcg.gov/incident/4305Every effort has been made to stop the fire?s spread, and crews will continue suppression activities when it is safe to do so in areas that are accessible. But in much of the active areas, options are limited. Rolling rocks, falling snags, and unstable burning material make it impossible for firefighters to build direct line at this time.
Continued warm temperatures and low humidity are expected through this week and the fire will likely increase in size and complexity.
