Lone Pine Fire Update

According to a press release there was no growth on the Lone Pine Fire overnight and the fire at 40% containment Lone Pine Road and Skull Hollow Campground have reopened to the public.

Firefighters will continue to secure lines around the fire and move it toward further containment today.

Resources on the fire have remained fairly steady with three 20-person hand crews, 8 engines, a water tender and various overhead personnel.

The public is asked to be thoughtful of dry fuels when enjoying any outdoor activities at this time of year. A single spark in dry grass can cause a wildfire in Central Oregon.
