Fire
 
Heavy fuels from the Yeti Fire continue to smolder. There is a new, active fire near Scott Bar. With hotter, drier weather the fires in the SRF Lightning Complex are expected to be more active today. As conditions allow, firing operations are planned for the SRF Lightning Complex in order to limit fire spread and intensity.
