Size: 429,188 acres with 37% containment | Personnel: 6,067
Lassen National Forest:
Overnight, on the #ParkFire, firefighters held the fire within the planning area south and east of Turner Mountain through use of night-capable aircraft and direct line construction. Higher humidity overnight aided in the fire fight.
Today, direct attack continues to extinguish active fire and strengthen control lines around the fire's perimeter.
Unified partners have converged firefighters to completely suppress the #ParkFire.
The #ParkFire has burned 113,694 acres on the Lassen National Forest.
CAL FIRE:
Park Fire behavior was moderated overnight. With the exception of a few new small spot fires, containment lines have held. There have been pockets of unburned fuel and heavy dead and down fuels continue to burn out and threaten control lines.
There was improved humidity recovery overnight in the Mill Creek area. A slow cooling trend begins early next week as temperatures are expected to fall to near or even a few degrees below seasonal norms. Firefighters continue to offensively engage the fire where possible to build control line, tie in line to previously constructed line, and mop-up.
