Weather and Fire Behavior: Unseasonably warm and dry weather is expected to continue throughout the day. Temperatures could be 2-4 degrees higher than yesterday with light winds coming from the southwest.

Fire behavior will continue to be minimal with smoldering.
Riverside Fire: Firefighters continued to monitor and patrol the fire perimeter and directly engage where heat is encountered near the fireline. There were no 9-1-1 calls reported for the north and eastern sides of the fire yesterday. Helicopters responded to smoke reports in the Ripplebrook area. Suppression repair work continues with assessment of future suppression repair needs.
Efforts will continue along the perimeter of the fire checking for heat and mopping-up around residential areas. On the western perimeter, firefighters are connecting dozer line with handline. Fire intensity along the southern edge has been significantly reduced.

Hunting in Burned Areas
Related Incident:
Publication Type: Announcement
Hunting in Burned Areas
People intending to hike into, or near, the fire area should remain alert and aware of their surroundings at all times. Know the forecasted weather before entering the area, assess the weather conditions while in the area, and stay clear of burned trees. Don’t camp or hang out in the wildfire area. And, as always, let someone know your planned route, destination and expected return time.
Hazard trees or snags tend to pose the most imminent threat. Dead or dying trees that remain standing after a wildfire are unstable, especially in high winds.
People are more likely to be aware of obstacles on the ground but don’t often look up to assess danger.
Forest visitors can expect to encounter firefighter traffic, dusty roads, areas of smoke.
Other hazards to be aware of include:
Burned-out stump holes can make the ground weak and subject to failure.
Loose rocks and logs are unpredictable and present the hazard of rolling debris.
Ash and fallen needles are slippery and can make for treacherous footing on trails.
Flash floods and mud flows may occur, especially in areas without vegetation.
Hunters may be traveling in areas with high fire dangers or fire closures from recent or ongoing wildfires. Hunters are asked to use extreme caution and follow all fire restrictions while in the field. Here are a few things to keep in mind if you are planning to hunt on public lands:
Know before you go if there fire restrictions in effect.
Consider campfire alternatives such as propane stoves.
If campfires are allowed, make sure your fire is dead out before leaving. Drown, stir, and drown again. If it’s too hot to touch, it’s too hot to leave.
Do not idle, drive or park on dry grass as vehicle exhaust and undercarriage could potentially ignite the grass or brush.
Do not flick a cigarette out a vehicle window because it can start a wildfire. Extinguish smoking materials in the vehicle ashtray.
Check any chain you may be using on a trailer. Dragging metal on the roadbed can start a shower of sparks into dry vegetation causing a wildfire.
Report wildfires by calling 911.
As always, let someone know your planned route, destination and expected return time.

Weather and Fire Behavior: A strong ridge of high pressure is anchored over the State and will continue to deliver unseasonably warm and dry weather. Light easterly winds in the morning will become terrain driven by the afternoon and strong morning inversions will be in place. Smoke from California wildfires could impact the area today. Vegetation will also continue to dry out, but fire behavior will be limited due to recent precipitation. Large logs, deep duff and sheltered areas will continue to retain heat. The fire activity will continue to be creeping, smoldering, and some smoke will be visible. Growth of the fire is not anticipated due to effects of the moisture we received last week. Humidity levels are expected to remain low with predicted levels as low as 15% at higher elevations.
Yesterday: Firefighters continued to monitor and patrol the fire perimeter and directly engage where heat is encountered near the fireline. In addition, mop-up and improvement of fire lines continued with vegetation removal. Mop-up is when fire crews work by hand checking for any sources of heat, using hand tools to spread out debris and water to extinguish any smoldering fire activity, ensuring the areas along the fire perimeter are out and cold. On the north side of the fire, equipment operators completed line improvement. East winds combined with low relative humidity continued to dry out fuels and produced additional smoke, however no fire perimeter growth occurred.
Today’s Activities: On the west side of the fire, firefighters are continuing to mop-up areas at risk by improving handlines and dozer lines. On the southern end, patrols will continue to mop-up areas and minimize fire risks. Efforts in the eastern end include chipping operations to reduce vegetation. The focus of firefighter patrol is to ensure hazard trees are removed, address vegetative debris smoldering near structures and improve firelines. Heavy equipment work continues along roads with chippers and masticators to improve existing containment and contingency firelines on the south and west side of the fire. The northeastern portion of the fire will be monitored by air. The fire perimeters on Riverside and Beachie Creek Fires total approximately 800 miles in length. This is a comparable distance to the drive between Portland, Oregon and Salt Lake City, Utah.
Despite recent rains and cooler temperatures fire season and regulated-use closure are still in effect for lands protected by the Oregon Department of Forestry in Clackamas, Marion, and Linn counties. Backyard burning is prohibited during fire season; other restrictions for outdoor activities can be found at https://gisapps.odf.oregon.gov/firerestrictions/PFR.html.
