Wildfire Status:
The 2024 Clear Fire, located west of Clear Lake Reservoir on the Doublehead Ranger District, is currently 100% contained and in patrol status. The fire was reported on June 26 and has burned 890 acres of vegetation. The total personnel involved in the response effort is 85, and the estimated containment date is July 26, 2024. The fire is primarily fueled by vegetation, with sagebrush contributing to higher fuel moistures that have hampered fire activity and growth. Minimal smoldering and creeping have been reported at the fire site.
The response efforts have been successful, with crews holding all lines and minimal smoke visible on the morning of June 27. Fire personnel will continue to work on suppressing the fire and reinforcing containment lines. Resources involved in the response include 6 engines, 2 crews, 1 dozer, 1 air attack, 2 air tankers, 1 type 2 helicopter, and multiple overhead staff. Suppression and mop-up efforts will continue in the coming days to ensure the fire remains contained. The current weather conditions present a concern, as a warming and drying trend is expected to continue, potentially affecting fire behavior.
