Gatlin Creek Fire Update 8:30pm 07/06/22

Gatlin Creek Fire
Publication Type: Announcement -

Evacuations have been lifted as of 8:30 Wednesday evening. 10 structures were initially threatened and saved. Forward progress has now been stopped. TAMFS dozers are continuing construction of fire containment lines, but progress is slow due to thick fuels and terrain. Engine crews continue to work around defending structures and mop up operations. Containment is 20%. 
Expect smoke and emergency vehicles in the fire area throughout the night. Do not fly drones in the area of wildfires as they endanger wildfire aircraft crews and impede wildfire suppression operations.
