Firefighters have spent the day locating hotspots and installing hose lays along dozer lines. Once a hotspot is identified, crews use water to cool the heat and dig line around the spot. Dozers are being utilized to clear vegetation around hotspots to prevent further spread.

The afternoon recon flight did not take place since fire activity was minimal. Aircraft remain available if a need arises.

No structures have been destroyed. No injuries have been reported by first responders or the public.
