High potential for aggressive fire behavior will challenge Boneyard Fire today, focus on minimizing fire growth
MONUMENT, Ore. – Today’s hot, dry weather forecast with low relative humidity and high ignition potential will challenge day operations on the Boneyard fire. With assistance from three task forces from the Oregon State Fire Marshal, structural protection will continue.
Last night, crews had success building dozer line outside the town of Monument with coordinated assistance from landowners. Structural task forces and fire crews contained several spot fires overnight, reducing impacts to homes and communities. Work continues to minimize growth on the southwest portion of the fire.
