Green Ridge Fire AM Update

Isolated torching is still common on the Green Ridge Fire

Fire lines held again yesterday on the Green Ridge Fire and crews continued mopping up hotspots. One area on the north side and one area on the east side are challenging efforts. On the north side, crews continue to find and contain spot fires in a location dubbed “the honeycomb” due to the number of areas where embers have ignited small fires outside the line. On the east side, crews are working to mopup a large section of line where the fire burned in a mosaic pattern, leaving pockets of vegetation that could reignite. Twenty-five hand crews and 22 engines will continue mopping up today, supported by numerous dozers, water tenders and other heavy equipment.
