Yesterday resources were able to construct dozer and handline on the north side of Quintette to the community. Resources have been making progress building containment line on the northwest side of the fire. Last night fire growth was predominantly moving in a southeast and northeast direction.

Today with the onset of the low-pressure system, higher winds will move in which will fan the fire and increase activity. Fire crews will work to construct direct and indirect line around the perimeter of the fire. Additional resources will be working on perimeter control and preparing structures for defensive actions.

Both the El Dorado County Sheriff’s Office as well as the Placer County Sheriff’s Office are constantly monitoring and evaluating evacuated areas assessing the need for additional evacuations and when it is safe to repopulate.

EVACUATION ORDERS are in effect for the following communities:
