The Six Rivers Lightning Complex remains in unified command with California Interagency Incident Management Team 15, California Highway Patrol, Trinity County Sheriff, and Humboldt County Sheriff. The Six Rivers Lightning Complex is currently 41, 296 acres with 73% containment and 1, 234 personnel assigned to the incident. (Ammon – 11,465 acres; Campbell – 29,831 acres)

CURRENT SITUATION

On the Campbell fire, crews continue to focus on strengthening the control lines along the northern perimeter near Cedar Creek, the east perimeter along the Lone Pine Ridge, and along the southern perimeter above the communities of Trinity Village and Hawkins Bar. Firefighters on the Ammon fire will continue to patrol and monitor the area and wildfire crews have begun repairing roads and suppression lines utilizing heavy equipment.

There will be small delays on Denny Road as crews work on the road to remove hazard trees and build contingency lines between Hawkins Bar and Happy Camp Mountain Road. 

An Unmanned Aviation System drone will be flown over the fire area to aid firefighters in identifying remaining sources of heat, which will allow ground and air resources to target those areas of concern more quickly.

A critical fire weather pattern is currently moving over much of California. Today’s weather will be transitioning into an unusually high temperature with low humidity and record high temperatures could be reached by tomorrow. These record temperatures and dry fuel conditions is a cause for concern on existing fires and increases the possibility for new ignitions.
