Leader’s Intent: The Boise Fire is being managed with a full suppression strategy.  

Operational Update: Crews continue to mop up and secure existing containment lines along the western edge of the fire. Work continues along the road system within the fire perimeter felling trees and improving the roads. Two spike camps are being utilized near the fire’s edge to decrease firefighters' travel time. Crews continue to go direct on the fire perimeter on the eastern edge of the fire. Suppression repair continues today with backhauling hose, equipment, and other unnecessary items in areas where they are no longer needed.  

Weather and Fire Behavior: A high pressure weather system remains over the region today. Temperatures may be above average for this time of year. As the vegetation continues to dry out from the recent rains, more smoke may be visible from heavier fuels within the fire perimeter. During peak heat hours, upslope 8 mph winds are expected on the southern and western aspects, with gusts at 10-15mph. Under current conditions, additional fire spread is not likely.
