The lightning caused Ross Fork Fire has burned 37,868 acres and is 64% contained. On Wednesday, the fire experienced another day of warm and dry conditions, with good overnight humidity. There was some minimal growth in the southern end of the fire. Crews continue to locate and control hot spots along Alturas Lake and in the Salmon River headwaters. Mop-up and hazard tree abatement continues throughout the fire area. The forest closure is still in effect. Crews are working hard to make roads and recreation facilities in those areas safe for public use. Firefighters are finishing up suppression repair work. Over the next few days Nevada Team 3 will be transitioning the fire back to the local ranger district.
