Scattered showers and thunderstorms were
predicted through Friday evening with the potential for additional flash
flooding. Luckily, storms skirted around the locations of the fires and fire
camp, giving personnel time to regroup and focus on mop up operations,
suppression repair work and cleaning up fire camp. Saturday is predicted to see
a return of drier and warmer conditions. Fire fighters will take advantage of
the drying out and continue to mop-up, chip along contingent lines, and back
haul equipment off the Upper Falls and Little Bridge Creek fires.
Fire suppression repair will remain the focus on the Carlton
Complex. Much of the Forest closures associated within the Little Bridge Creek
Fire have been lifted. See the forest website for details of closures. http://www.fs.usda.gov/okawen
Crews did initial attack one small single tree fire started
by lightning. The fire was quickly suppressed.
Approximately 500 fire personnel still remain assigned to
the three fires. However, large scale demobilization is in process and crews
will be heading back to their home units.
