Our Type 6 engine crew is currently deployed to the Middle Fork of the Big Cimarron.
Crews are hiking into the fire area to monitor several active areas along the fireline and ensure the fire does not cross our established control line. Above that line, fire is being allowed to burn under careful supervision as part of a broader forest-health strategy.
Hazard trees are coming down daily, creating an extremely dynamic and hazardous work environment. Our crew is taking every precaution while working to mitigate conditions that could contribute to further fire spread.
We’ll continue monitoring the fire closely and supporting efforts to keep the surrounding communities and forests safe.
