Double Creek, Sturgill, Nebo, Goat Mountain Two FiresSeptember 26, 2022Daily Update – 8:00 AM Highlights: Today will be hot and dry with conditions similar to mid-August as opposed to late September. High fuel moisture and lack of wind will prevent any large fire growth. Instead, any active fire will be “skunking around”. This low intensity fire acts similar to a prescribed burn, cleaning up unburned pockets of fuel resulting in a more fire-resistant landscape and a healthier forest. Double Creek Fire: 157,766 acres | 81% contained | 513 personnel assigned The fire grew forty-nine acres in the last twenty-four hours. The northern and southern edges of the fire remain the most active. With temperatures expected to reach the mid-90s near Cow Creek, the fire will be more active, and smoke will be more evident. Crews and aircraft will continue to monitor the fire and are prepared to engage should the need arise. Eagle Cap Wilderness Fires The Nebo, Sturgill, and Goat Mountain 2...
