INDIAN CROSSING FIRE - UPDATE

INDIAN CROSSING FIRE - UPDATE:

At a Glance:
87 Acres (decrease in size due to more accurate mapping)
45% Contained
120 Personnel (2 Hotshot Crews - 4 Type 2 Hand Crews - 3 Engines)
2 Medium Helicopters

Cooler weather and light winds aided firefighters yesterday. The fire is now just creeping and smoldering and crews will continue to secure hand-lines and mop up. Challenges remain with the steep terrain and numerous snags.

As we approach the holiday weekend we'd like to remind visitors to check forest websites for more information on Public Use Restrictions.
