Fire Information Line: (575) 519-4312
Email: larry_smith@firenet.gov
Size: 23,216 acres Containment: 34% Cause: Lightning
Location: Three miles northeast of Mogollon Baldy Lookout
Total Personnel: 72 personnel on the fire including four Type 2 initial attack hand crews, one Type 1 helicopter, and one Type 3 helicopter
Summary: The fire perimeter has not grown for three days. The likelihood of threat to life and property are minimal unless a significant drying trend and wind event occur. Because of the location within an old burn scar, resulting in an abundance of snags, crews have been unable to safely construct direct fireline.
Crews continued to clear Trail # 172 south towards intersection with Trail #182 at Hummingbird saddle. Scouting of Y Creek cabin has been completed.
Weather: Cloud cover, scattered precipitation and high relative humidity (RH) have contributed to minimizing fire behavior, despite outflow winds from area thunderstorms.
