Little to no growth is anticipated within the Shelly Fire’s current perimeter (15,477 Acres). Though fuels continue to smolder in isolated areas around Kidder Creek and the area north of Babs Lake, these pose little threat to control lines.
Shelly Fire operations will begin reducing the footprint of personnel and equipment and transition into fire suppression repair.
While these efforts continue, drivers in the area should remain alert for fire personnel and heavy equipment on or near the roadways.
Total Resources: 2,234 personnel, 81 crews, 101 engines, 33 dozers, 12 helicopters, 84 heavy equipment
WEATHER:
