Cow Creek Prescribed Burn
Publication Type: Announcement 10/06/2023

Fire personnel continued to monitor the #CowCreekRx burn area over the weekend. The burn area had minimal fire behavior and minimal smoke, which came primarily from the interior of the burn area.  

With a current trend of colder and wetter weather, firefighters will continue to monitor the Cow Creek Prescribed Burn area and the GMUG will be assessing for a return of favorable prescribed burning conditions for Unit 2 for the #CowCreekRx burn.
