Fire danger remains extreme and smoke in much of the area has become hazardous and unhealthy for the public and firefighters, and at the Incident Command Post south of Diamond Lake. Yesterday’s Activity: The unstable atmosphere, coupled with unseasonably hot, dry conditions and a wind shift to the W-NW created convection columns and associated extreme fire behavior early afternoon on Sunday causing firefighters to pull back from containment lines on Paradise, Broken Lookout, Windy Gap and Blanket Creek Fires. As a result, spot fires to the south and west of Forest Road (FR) 68 and constructed dozer and hand line have fire managers re-assessing their primary containment line on the west perimeter of the Broken Lookout (5,080 ac), Windy Gap (817 ac) and Paradise (1,532 ac) Fires. Fire crews made good progress on strengthening the primary containment line along FR 6510 to help protect Union Creek from advancing fire. Crews also began prep work along FR 6510-700 as a secondary containment line west of FR 6510. Structural protection work has been completed in Union Creek. Firefighters started prepping and tying FR 2947 and 2947-300 to the Rogue Umpqua Divide Wilderness to the north to secure the northeast flank of the Paradise Fire. On Spruce Lake Fire (7,233 ac), fire crews were unable to hold the fire along the indirect containment line south of Red Cone. Firefighters then shifted their efforts to prepping along the west side of the North Entrance Road as the new primary containment line. The Blanket Creek Fire (21,284 ac) showed little movement towards Mazama Village to the north but very active fire behavior resulted in perimeter growth further into the Sky Lakes Wilderness to the south and to east crossing FR 3282. Hwy 62 is prepped and ready to be used as the containment line should intermediate efforts fail to contain the east perimeter. Good options have been identified on the east flank of the Pup Fire (1,734 ac) for indirect containment that will require minimal preparation. The persistent dense smoke at the Prospect Helibase again kept helicopters grounded. Efforts to establish a helicopter fueling station near Fort Klamath were unsuccessful due to dense smoke in the valley.

As conditions allow, burnout operations will continue southeast along FR 68. Firefighters will monitor the Pup Fire and continue point protection on the Hershberger Lookout and the adjacent telecommunication site. On the Spruce Lake Fire crews will continue prepping along the North Entrance Road and reopening handlines used on the 2015 National Creek Complex. On Blanket Creek Fire, managers will reassess the use of FR 3282 as a primary containment line on the east flank and assess continued construction of line from FR 3282 south to Dry Creek then west to the Sky Lakes Wilderness boundary. Crews also plan to finish constructing an indirect line from FR 3282 to Hwy 62 north of Annie Creek Snopark.
