Current Situation:  The Frog Fire has become less active and containment has increased on the south and east sides; however, there are still some areas of heat remaining on the interior of the fire area.  The fire is sheltered from the predicted high winds and is not expected to show any significant increases in activity over the weekend.  Work on the Frog Fire has progressed well, and fire managers estimate only a few days left of work to complete containment of the fire perimeter.  As resources are no longer needed on the Frog Fire, they will be reassigned to the Wapiti Fire.  The fire camp at Yankee Fork Guard Station will also be removed by the end of the weekend due to the decreased need for support on that fire.

Evacuations:  There are currently no evacuations related to the Frog Fire.
