Bachelor Complex and Flat Top and Firestone Fires Update

Quick Facts: Bachelor Complex  
Size: 10,333 acres                   Start Date: Sept 8, 2024                   Location: Mt Bachelor, 20 miles SW Bend, OR  
Personnel: 365                                       

Quick Facts: Firestone & Flat Top Fires  
Firestone Size: 8,787 acres     Start Date: Sept 6, 2024                   Location: North of Fort Rock, OR  
Flat Top Size: 30,643 acres     Personnel: 159                                  

Yesterday, firefighters continued to establish containment lines on the Bachelor Complex, Flat Top and Firestone Fires. Throughout the afternoon, air tankers and helicopters continuously dropped water and retardant to slow spread on the Flat Top Fire. Firefighters conducted strategic burning operations on the Little Lava, Flat Top, and Firestone Fires which saw an increase in smoke production later in the day. Crews also worked night shifts to patrol and secure these areas. The Deschutes National Forest expanded their temporary closure areas on Thursday afternoon and the updated closure areas include additional developed recreation sites. A recording from Wednesday’s public meeting has been posted to Facebook: facebook.com/deschutesnationalforest/. 

These are priority fires in the region and more personnel, heavy equipment and aerial resources continue to arrive to support suppression efforts. Today, the fires were assigned a dedicated air attack to coordinate aerial suppression operations. Firefighters will continue to establish and secure containment lines and conduct tactical burning operations around the Bachelor Complex, Flat Top and Firestone Fires.

Bachelor Complex: The higher elevation fires in the Bachelor Complex near the Cascade crest have experienced minimal fire growth over the last two days due to cooler temperatures, higher moisture levels and good overnight humidity recovery. As moisture levels drop and temperatures rise today and Saturday, expect to see more smoke along the edges of these fires. Yesterday, firefighters completed burning operations to the south of the Little Lava Fire to Forest Service Road (FSR) 4525. Crews continued to mop up and secure the portion of the fire east of FSR 45. Today, firefighters will scout for opportunities to establish a control line north of this fire to Edison Trail. On the Backside and 911 Fires, crews will continue to strengthen containment lines and mop up operations. 

Flat Top Fire: As humidity levels dropped yesterday afternoon, grass and brushy fuels became available for ignition and the Flat Top Fire saw increased fire activity with flanking to the north. Firefighters used retardant drops ahead of dozers line to keep the fire from spreading. Today, firefighters plan to continue strategic firing operations on the ground to help secure control lines along the north and northeast sides of the fire. This will result in increased smoke production over the fire. 

Firestone Fire: Yesterday, firefighters conducted burning operations along the southern and southwestern flanks of the fire near the base of East Butte to Forest Service Road 220. Today, crews will prep roads south and southeast of the fire in preparation for potential burning operations in the coming days. 

Safety: With increased fire traffic, everyone in the area is reminded to drive slowly and carefully on road systems near the fire suppression operations. If you don’t need to be in the area, please stay clear to allow firefighters plenty of time and space to work.

Weather and Fire Behavior: The Bachelor Complex fires will dry out a little with temperatures today and Saturday in the mid-60s. This afternoon, west winds could gust up to 18 mph. The Little Lava Fire may see some flanking fire and individual tree torching this afternoon with low rates of spread. On the Firestone and Flat Top Fires, moisture levels will drop and are expected to reach 20-25% relative humidity this afternoon with warm weather in the mid-70’s. West winds will pick up this afternoon with gusts up to 15 mph. These conditions may result in increased fire activity. Cool temperatures from a system coming up from Northern California are forecasted beginning early next week as well as an increased chance for wetting rain. Currently, there is potential for isolated thunderstorms Sunday night.  

Evacuations: Emergency management and fire officials are closely coordinating and adjusting evacuation levels as needed. Level 3 evacuations mean “Go Now,” Level 2 means “Be Set,” and Level 1 means "Be Ready.” To view current evacuation levels, please visit the Deschutes County Emergency Information Interactive Map at: http://www.deschutes.org/emergency. For Lake County evacuation information, please visit: https://www.lakecountyor.org/flat_top.php  

Closures: There are two closure areas on the Deschutes National Forest for these fires. Both closure areas were expanded on Thursday, September 12, and include additional developed recreation sites.

Swauk Creek Fire

September 13, 2024

Estimated size: 338 acres

Containment: 9%

Start Date/Time: 9/8/2024 at 3:54 PM

Area of Origin: Adjacent to Highway 97, 14 miles east of Cle Elum, WA

Cause: Vehicle Fire/Under Investigation                  

Structures Damaged: 0

Update: The weather was favorable as crews continued to monitor the fire overnight. Hard work continues placing hand line around the edges of the fire perimeter. Crews have established anker points on both the northeast and northwest sides of the fire edge. Air resources are dropping buckets of water on the northeast corner of the fire to keep the fire in check. The terrain in that area is steep and hard to access. Crews have been able to go direction on the eastern side of the fire edge continuing to build hand lines and monitor for hotspots. On the south side of the fire crews have been removing hazard trees and going direct on the fire edge. Masticators continue working on the southwestern edge cleaning up debris. We continue to order more resources and evaluate contingency lines around the fire perimeter. A structure protection group has been established and is working on property identification and evaluation. We want to ensure homes and other buildings are listed on our maps, so we are aware of their presence.

One of the team’s public information officers along with some local officials visited the town of Liberty yesterday. They were able to meet with residents and share updates and maps. They also talked with citizens answering questions and ensuring they know where to find fire information.

Road Closures: Highway 97 is now open with no restrictions.

Evacuation Levels: The evacuations remain the same as yesterday. They were updated as a precaution; there is no immediate residential threat from this fire. Evacuations can be found on the interactive map. Many Forest Service roads are affected in this area; please review the map if you want to know about a specific location/road.

Live map of active fires from Kittitas County:

Currently, no evacuation notices are issued for residents south of First Creek or west of US Highway 97.

As always, conditions can change quickly, please stay alert and avoid the area if you feel unsafe.

Weather and Fire Behavior: Today we expect dry weather with a chance of light, non-wetting rain this evening into Saturday. Light winds are expected today and will increase on Saturday. Minimal RH values will be about 35-40 percent on Saturday with excellent overnight recovery. Temperatures today are anticipated to be a high around 70 degrees with a low this evening around 50 degrees.

Dunlap, CA – September 13, 2024—The Happy Fire is currently 588 acres and 50% contained on the Sequoia National Forest (SQF), with an estimated two acres on the north side of the Monarch Divide, on the Sierra National Forest (SNF) north of the Kings River in Fresno County. 

The fire is expected to spread laterally to the northeast, on the SQF. It has not reached the higher elevation rock line. Despite significant smoke plumes at the start of the Happy Fire and earlier in the week, there is little threat to infrastructure. Heavy fuels continue to burn within the fire perimeter, while the east flank has moved into a rocky section along the ridge top within the 2015 Rough Fire Scar. Pending changes in weather, minimal smoke is to be expected through the weekend. Fire management from SQF/SNF are continuing to monitor the fire.

For more information on the Happy Fire visit  https://inciweb.wildfire.gov/incident-information/casqf-happy, email SM.FS.SequoiaNF@usda.gov and follow us on the Sequoia National Forest Facebook at SequoiaNF or visit our website at www.fs.usda.gov/Sequoia for current information.  

Additional resources have been ordered to assist in the management and containment of both Red Rock and Black Eagle fires, as firefighting forces attempt to use yesterday’s favorable weather conditions to make progress on fire containment. 

Red Rock: 

Fire acreage remains at 2570 acres with 0% containment. Yesterday, crews looked for opportunities to directly and indirectly engage the fire along its perimeter. Today, crews plan to construct a handline from Road 60110 North and East along the fire’s edge.  Heavy equipment will used to improve access and expand fire control features along Road 60214, as well as on Road 60210 going west from roadway 60055.

Incident personnel continued structure protection activities along the Panther Creek Corridor up to the Ranger Station, and will extend those efforts north of Moyer. 

Black Eagle: 

Fire acreage remains at 5914 acres with 0% containment. On the north side of the fire, resources continue structure protection activities, implementing protective measures - sprinklers, hose, and pumps - at Yellowjacket and Bighorn Crags campsites, as well as Black Eagle Mine. Along the western boundary, resources continue to monitor conditions and look for opportunities to engage the fire.

Weather and Fire Behavior: 

Yesterday a wetting rain blanketed the fire footprint, with snow seen in higher elevations. Today we can expect drier conditions, with temperatures in the 50’s over the fire area and relative humidity around 30%. Winds are expected at 5-10 mph out of the west, with gusts up to 20 mph along ridgetops.  

Yesterday’s precipitation and nearly 20 hours of high humidity allowed much of the fuel load to absorb moisture and suppressed fire activity. Heavy dead and downed fuel are likely to retained heat despite the precipitation, and may continue to produce smoke.  As the weather warms over the coming days, grasses and other small fuels quick to shed yesterday’s moisture will be the most likely areas of potential fire spread. 

FOREST CLOSURE:

NFS lands, roads and trails on the Salmon‐Cobalt, and North Fork Ranger Districts of the Salmon‐Challis National Forest within the area bounded by the following: 

• Beginning at the intersection of Blackbird creek with Panther Creek, following Blackbird creek to Blackbird mountain, then following FS Road 33 to the Frank Church River of No Return Wilderness boundary, and following the boundary to the Golden Trout Lake Trailhead, including the Big Horn Crags Campground and crossing over into the Frank Church  River of No Return Wilderness and onto the ridge to the west of Wilson Creek, then going south to Middle Fork Peak. From Middle Fork Peak to the Frank Church River of No Return Wilderness Boundary to trail 053 then running along Little Jacket Creek to Trail 051, then following Trail 051 to Birdseye Creek to Forest Road 245 at its intersection with Panther Creek Road 55, then following the western side of Panther Creek Road until it reaches Blackbird Creek.  

   

• Additionally, the McDonald Creek Campground and all associated roads are closed.

For the latest information on area closures, please contact the North Fork Ranger District at (208) 865-2700.Details on the Black Eagle Fire can also be found on InciWeb: https://inciweb.wildfire.gov/incident-information/idscf-black-eagle-fire.   

The forest is asking visitors to be aware of the fire danger for the Salmon-Challis National Forest.  Ensure your campfire is dead out. If it is too hot to touch, it is too hot to leave! One Less Spark Means One Less Wildfire.  Since June 1, Forest employees have found and extinguished at least 13 abandoned campfires.

On September 18,2024, the Lake County Sheriff lifted evacuations for the Buck Creek Fire area, but the forest closure order remains in effect. Public and firefighter safety are the incident’s top priority.

Closures and Restrictions: Current fire danger is high, and restrictions are in place within the Fremont-Winema National Forest. A forest closure order is in effect for the area around the Buck Creek Fire. For the complete order and map as well as more detail on fire restrictions, go to: https://www.fs.usda.gov/fremont-winema. 

Buck Creek Size: 5,119 acres | Reported Date: September 7 | Cause: Lightning   |  Containment: 0%
BowmanWell  Size: 2,852 acres | Reported Date: September 6 | Cause: Lightning  |   Containment: 85%
Total Resources Personnel: 629 |  Crews: 17  | Engines: 27 |  Water Tenders: 11|  Heavy Equipment: 10  | Helicopters: 8

(Silver Lake, Ore.) – The Buck Creek Fire started in heavy timber on the Fremont-Winema National Forest about 12 miles southwest of Silver Lake, Ore. in a semi-primitive area of the Forest with limited road access. The Bowman Well Fire is burning in sage brush, grass and juniper on lands administered by the Bureau of Land Management about 3 miles northwest of Christmas Valley, Ore. The Fremont-Winema National Forest has issued a forest closure order around the area of the Buck Creek Fire; public and firefighter safety remain the top priority on these incidents. 

Buck Creek: Yesterday, drier conditions resulted in isolated areas of moderate fire activity within the existing fire perimeter. Day and night shift firefighters mopped up hot spots to improve and secure completed dozer line along the north flank and around Rodman Rock in the northwest corner of the fire. Felling crews also dropped snags and other hazardous trees along Forest Road 025 to provide safer conditions for those working along the roads. Dozer line was extended along the eastern fingers and around spots caused by the extreme fire activity on September 10th. On the south edge, some direct dozer line was completed north of Antler Horse Camp. Firefighters scouted for opportunities to connect the new direct fire line with completed line toward the west. Crews used fire hose to mop up hot spots where fire line is completed. Helicopter bucket drops aided firefighters by cooling areas where the fire is actively burning.

Today, crews will improve the portion of the Blue Buck Trail running though the fire area to provide access for medical evacuation and crew support. This will allow firefighters to install and secure direct fire line along the south flank in areas with the highest probability of success. Firefighters will continue to install the direct fire line by hand and with dozers. To support mop-up activities, crews will set up pumps and install hoses along the lines. As the temperature increases and humidity decreases, fire behavior may be most active where winds align with terrain. Aviation resources remain available to assist as visibility allows. 

Bowman Well:  Some interior fuels flared up yesterday, but there was no threat to established containment lines. Firefighters improved, secured, and patrolled lines and will continue this work today. Some firefighting resources are being shifted to the Buck Creek Fire as containment increases on the Bowman Well Fire.

Evacuations: In coordination with fire managers, the Lake County Sheriff has established evacuations for the Buck Creek Fire. All evacuations for the Bowman Well Fire have been lifted. Go to www.lakecountyor.orgfor details about evacuation levels. 

Weather: Maximum temperature in mid 70s and minimum humidity in the 20s are predicted for today and Saturday, with possible rain beginning on Sunday. 

Safety: School buses, cattle, firefighting equipment, and crews are present on local roads. Fire managers ask the public to drive attentively and to remain clear of the fire areas. The public also plays an important role in preventing the next wildfire by using caution with all ignition sources. For prevention tips visit, https://keeporegongreen.org. Current fire danger is extreme and restrictions are in place within the Fremont-Winema National Forest. More information can be found at: 

https://www.fs.usda.gov/detail/fremont-winema/news-events/?cid=FSEPRD1188568 

Closures: A forest closure order is in effect for the area around the Buck Creek Fire. Go to https://www.fs.usda.gov/fremont-winema for the complete order and map.  Christmas Valley Airport is temporarily closed to general aviation because it is being used as the helibase for fire operations. A temporary flight restriction remains in place over the Buck Creek Fire.

Smoke:  Smoke from multiple fires around the region is affecting the area. For more information on smoke conditions and strategies on limiting exposure, go to: www.oregonsmoke.org or www.AirNow.gov. 

For a printable version of today's complete update for the Airport Fire, please see the related link below. 

Current Situation:

Firefighters on the Airport Fire were able to increase containment to 8%. Experienced hotshot crews are actively constructing fire lines in rugged terrain, employing strategies that minimize risks to personnel. Hand crews are playing a vital role in making progress during favorable weather conditions Aerial support is also instrumental, with aircraft dropping fire retardant to create barriers and slow the fire's spread, ensuring the safety of both firefighters and the public. 

On the ground, fire engines are diligently patrolling the fire's perimeter, identifying opportunities for direct attack. In certain areas, such as Lake Elsinore, Decker Canyon Road, and Lakeland Village, firefighters have achieved notable success in increasing containment through mop-up efforts. The fire did slop over near the Harding Truck Trail yesterday and overnight access had been hindered by the challenging terrain; day shift will continue to work direct in that area due to it being safer to engage in the daytime hours.  

We are aware that multiple structures have been either damaged or destroyed across the fire. Damage assessment teams are assessing the affected areas to determine the extent. Additional information will be provided as they become available.  
Weather conditions are expected to remain favorable for firefighting efforts, with a thickening marine layer, mild temperatures, high humidity, and southwest winds. However, there is a risk of smoke and fog forming in lower drainages in the afternoon, potentially impacting air quality and visibility. 

Firefighter’s priorites are to minimize fire impacts by constructing line directly on the fires edge when safe to do so, and to confine the fire to the smallest possible footprint.

Summary 

Today’s operations will concentrate on the completion of primary control lines to limit fire impacts to the identified values at risk. As Incident Commander, John Szulc stated, “We’re going to move with purpose.” Backhaul operations continue on the Moss Mountain, Coffee Pot, and Chalk fires, focusing on the removal of unused hoses and supplies. Where conditions permit, snagging, brush pile removal, and the maintenance of secondary and interior roads remain priorities. 

Red Fire (1,732 acres, 0% containment) 

Firefighters continue constructing shaded fuel breaks, removing smaller trees and underbrush while leaving larger, more fire resistant trees in place. All deployed structure protection equipment will continue to be checked and maintained in the event of unforeseen changes in fire behavior. As temperatures drop and the forecast predicts more moisture, resource needs in this area are being reevaluated while focusing on actions to minimize acres burned. 

208 Fire (8,843 acres, 0% containment) 
The fire growth towards Fire Service Road (FSR) 23 Road in the northwest and FSR 21 and 2154 in the south. Crews are actively reinforcing these roads to complete a fireline from FSR 23 to FSR 423. The objective is to connect this line with the existing fireline from the Moss Mountain Fire. 

Moss Mountain Fire (2,133 acres, 8% containment) 

Primary and contingency lines along FSR 23, 2120, 490, and 2309 are being reinforced and patrolled for changes in fire behavior. Crews continue to strengthen firelines by removing excess slash and other vegetation from these control features. 

Chalk Fire (5,987 acres, 86% containment)  

Firefighters are actively monitoring and improving containment lines on the south, east, and north sides of the fire. On the west side, crews are enhancing firelines along FSR 1912 and connecting them back to the fireline on FSR 1925. Monitoring of the unburned fuel island on the northwest side of the fire is ongoing. 

Weather and Fire Behavior 

Yesterday, skies stayed mostly cloudy, keeping relative humidity high in the area. The fires within the complex showed minimal growth. Looking ahead, a low-pressure system is expected to bring increased cloudiness and moisture tomorrow through early next week. Continued high humidity and the cooling trend should sustain the current creeping and smoldering fire behavior.
