CORDUROY FIRE
BOUNDARY FIRE
Firefighters have established multiple contingency lines in alignment with existing road systems to keep the fire to the north of the 2059B and east of the 2000D roads. One of the top priorities is to minimize adverse effects to commercial timber stands within the 130-acre footprint of the Boundary fire on San Carlos land.
WILLOW FIRE
Firefighters have finished cold trailing, a method of inspecting and feeling with the hand to detect any heat, along the perimeter of the fire. Resources will now look to identify fire suppression repair work that will be needed.
