The Six Rivers Lightning Complex remains in unified command with California Interagency Incident Management Team 14, California Highway Patrol, Trinity County Sheriff, and Humboldt County Sheriff. The Six Rivers Lightning Complex is currently 34,076 acres with 54% containment and 1,922 personnel assigned to the incident.

The containment percentage has been updated to correctly reflect the amount of the fire perimeter that is deemed fully contained. Although this represents a sizeable reduction to the containment percentage, it should be noted that much of the control lines have been completed and are nearing containment classification.

CURRENT SITUATION

Monday, firefighters began their day with an excellent hold on most areas of the fire after several days of highly effective defensive firing operations. This positive position is a direct result of the full suppression strategy and the tireless efforts of the firefighters on the fire line.

Through Monday, the Ammon Fire held within its current footprint. Firefighters remained engaged around the fire, extinguishing hot spots and securing control lines around Madden Creek. In addition, fire suppression repair work has begun on the contingency lines of the Ammon Fire. Firefighters assigned to the Campbell Fire carried on with their primary objective of completing defensive firing operations along designated control lines. Efforts were concentrated around Horse Linto Campground, Lone Pine Ridge, and Groves Prairie Road. In the areas where firing operations have been completed, there is a large buffer intended to stop the forward progress of the fire.

In the evening hours of Monday, fire activity increased in the southeast portion of the Campbell Fire. Aerial reconnaissance identified a spot fire south of the control line at Zeigler Ridge. Firefighters today will pick up where night operations left off, prioritizing the containment of the spot fire near Zeigler Point. The structure protection task force will remain assigned to the areas of Trinity Village and Hawkins Bar.
