Wildfire Status:
The Red Fire, located in the Diamond Peak Wilderness, has shown signs of improvement with moderating weather conditions leading to decreased fire activity. As of October 18, 2024, the command of the fire was transitioned from a Type 3 incident commander to a Type 4 organization, indicating a shift towards managing the situation with fewer resources. The fire currently covers 3,060 acres, and approximately 30% of its perimeter has been contained. Despite these advancements, fire agencies are maintaining a presence, with a total of 46 personnel actively involved in the response.
Weather conditions have played a crucial role in the management of the Red Fire. The local environment has been characterized by factors that have contributed to reduced fire behavior, allowing crews to work more effectively. While the fire remains active, the current state is marked by minimal fire spread, with significant events reported as smoldering and creeping rather than aggressive growth. This shift in activity has fostered optimism regarding the containment efforts, which are projected to conclude by November 30, 2024.
In light of the ongoing situation, the Deschutes National Forest has issued a temporary emergency closure order to protect both the public and firefighters. Those interested in the specifics of these closures can find detailed information on the Forest Service website. As fire agencies continue to monitor and manage the Red Fire, updates will only be provided if significant changes in fire behavior occur.
