This incident is no longer being updated.

A pine forest in the mountains.

Crews completed ignitions on Oct 4. They have since implemented a long-term patrol and monitor plan. Minimal smoke can be observed as the fire continues to consume fuels on the forest floor.

The 1,009-acre American Creek Prescribed Fire (map) is part of the Rio Tusas-Lower San Antonio Landscape Project, which aims to restore the forest health throughout nearly half of the Tres Piedras Ranger District.
