Firefighters made progress on the Bumble Bee Fire west of Interstate 17 (I-17) in the Bradshaw Mountain foothills.

They worked ahead of the fire to locate, build or improve breaks in vegetation, at points conducting burn-out operations to remove vegetation adjacent to features such as roads that will be used to slow and contain the fire. The community of Bumble Bee remains accessible to residents only as firefighters improve and patrol the eastern flank of the fire closest to that community.
