Bowles Creek Fire
Publication Type: News 08/05/2023
Heavy equipment and masticators continue improving and constructing indirect fuel break (by clearing dead and down vegetation) along Forest Road 711A towards Railroad Creek, and on Forest Road 5071 towards Forest Road 5070. Fire personnel will continue scouting for containment opportunities to the North and South, including the use of previous firelines from the 2022 Hog Trough Fire. On the west side of the fire, hose lay and sprinklers are still being used by hand crews to support suppression efforts. Fire personnel are addressing various spot fires towards the south. Fire personnel are utilizing helicopters to support operations on both ends of the fire area.
