Wildfire Status:
The Lone Rock Fire, which ignited on July 13, 2024, has grown to more than 130,000 acres and is currently 98% contained. Fire management efforts have transitioned to a full suppression strategy, with multiple Incident Management Teams engaged in ongoing containment and mop-up operations. Local ranchers, landowners, and Rural Fire Protection Districts were instrumental in the initial response, focusing on protecting structures and private property. While many structures were saved, some losses were reported.
Recent weather conditions have played a critical role in fire management. Initially, hot, dry, and windy conditions hindered firefighting efforts, but subsequent wetter conditions have enabled firefighters to secure the northern perimeter of the fire. As of now, only some Level 1 (ready) evacuations remain in effect, and residents are encouraged to stay updated through interactive evacuation maps and local county resources. Evacuation centers have been established at Wheeler High School, with a large animal shelter available at the County Fairgrounds in Fossil, Oregon.
The fire continues to affect air quality in the region, and the public is advised to monitor air quality updates. Firefighters are working diligently to establish and reinforce containment lines, and additional road and land closures have been implemented to ensure safety. Community members are encouraged to adhere to fire restrictions from the Oregon Department of Forestry and Umatilla National Forest to prevent further wildfire risks.
