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

Operational Update: Containment has increased on the north side of the fire. In areas of the fire where containment has been achieved, crews continue to secure and improve existing containment lines. All regions around the fire perimeter are constantly monitored for potential issues. Crews continue to snag interior road systems, making it safe for ingress and egress, and continue chipping operations. On the fire's east side, firefighters work daily towards more containment in very steep terrain. Helicopters are being utilized for water dropping and cargo missions. Under the supervision of resource and cultural advisors, suppression repair is underway, which includes creating water bars and dozer and hand line repair. The China Creek area control lines are being moped up and validated.  

Weather and Fire Behavior: Expect sunny skies with hot and dry weather today. Winds will remain light. Relative humidity today will be around 20%. No significant fire spread is expected under the current conditions. As the vegetation continues to dry out from recent rains, smoke may be visible from unburnt fuels in the fire’s interior. Wind is expected tomorrow at the higher elevations.
