Bachelor Complex, Flat Top, and Firestone Fires Update

Quick Facts: Bachelor Complex
Size: 10,332 acres         Start Date: Sept 8, 2024             Location: Mt Bachelor, 20 miles SW Bend, OR
Personnel: 248  
             
Quick Facts: Firestone & Flat Top Fires
Firestone Size: 8,787 acres     Start Date: Sept 6, 2024             Location: North of Fort Rock, OR
Flat Top Size: 30,643 acres     Personnel: 116                

Yesterday, firefighters continued to work on suppressing the Bachelor Complex, Flat Top and Firestone Fires which saw slow to moderate growth on Wednesday due to cooler, wetter weather. This decrease in fire activity allowed crews to focus efforts on putting in containment lines on the fires. A helibase was established in Sunriver to support aerial resources. Firefighting operations include connecting roads with dozer lines and handlines both directly adjacent to the fire and further away, where indirect strategies are more effective. No new fires were reported on Wednesday. Today, firefighters will work on structure protection in the vicinity of Sheridan Mountain and west of Sunriver. Firefighters will continue to establish and secure containment lines around the Bachelor Complex, Flat Top, and Firestone Fires. Aerial resources will continue to help with suppression efforts.   

Bachelor Complex: The Bachelor Complex is a group of about 30 fires that range from one tenth of an acre to over 9,500 acres, for a total of 10,332 acres. The cooler wet weather slowed fire spread on the Little Lava Fire and crews capitalized on the opportunity, making good progress toward securing the fire’s edge east of Forest Service Road 45 with dozer line. Moderated fire behavior is expected again today, and firefighters will continue those efforts. They are using Forest Service Road 4525 to connect roads and trails to serve as containment lines. The Backside, 911, and 892 Fires are higher up on the Cascade Crest and received almost one tenth of an inch of precipitation yesterday. Today, firefighters will continue to secure and mop up the Backside Fire and smokejumpers continue to mop up the 911 Fire.    

Flat Top Fire: Yesterday, firefighters were able to directly engage putting fire on the ground to help secure control lines on the north and northeast sides of the fire. The crews working overnight reported no increase in size for this fire. Today, firefighters will continue work on securing the north side and conduct lighting operations off of Forest Service Road 22  to strengthen containment lines by consume vegetation between the line and the active edge of the fire.
Firestone Fire: Yesterday, firefighters were able to get most of the western edge of the fire secure. They used hand and dozer lines to stitch together a containment line with the existing road system. Work will continue securing the north side of the fire.    
 
Safety: With increased fire traffic, everyone in the area is reminded to drive slowly and carefully in evacuation areas. If you don’t need to be in the area, please stay clear to allow firefighters plenty of time and space to work.  

Weather and Fire Behavior: Bachelor Complex fires received more rain than Flat Top or Firestone Fires yesterday. The amount of precipitation on the Little Lava Fire was not enough to have long-lasting effects. Vegetation beneath the tree canopy remains dry and ninety percent of this fire has an active perimeter. The Backside, 892, and 911 Fires received more moisture which significantly slowed fire spread. Based on the weather outlook for the higher elevation fires on the Bachelor Complex, fire behavior analysts predict another mild day for fire behavior. On the Flat Top and Firestone Fires, stumps and logs are expected to continue burning while grasses and shrubs aren’t expected to dry out enough to be receptive to ignition until this afternoon. Scattered showers are expected throughout day over all fires.   

Evacuations: Emergency management and fire officials are closely coordinating and adjusting evacuation levels as needed. Level 3 evacuations mean “Go Now,” Level 2 means “Be Set,” and Level 1 means "Be Ready.”

Operational Update:

There is a community meeting tonight at the Paulina Community Center, at 5 p.m. 

Address: 70299 Paulina City Rd, Paulina, OR 97751

Resources continue to prioritize efforts to protect local communities, structures and land. Today, the focus is on boxing in the northwest edge of the fire by completing control line to ensure the fire doesn’t flank out and impact nearby communities. In the Battle Creek area, heavy equipment will continue to address access issues, while considering long-term impacts on road conditions. 

In the Guyon Basin, resources continue to tie control lines together across the South Fork area, working to keep the area behind Dayville secure. Oregon State Fire Marshal (OSFM) task forces will extend mop up around structures in this area, working down to the South Fork Road. Along Fields Creek/FSR 21, road prep work continues, and firefighters will be looking for opportunities to engage directly with the fire. Multiple air resources will be available to assist with suppression efforts throughout the day, weather permitting. 

In the Morgan Mountain area, the focus remains on completing containment lines around the slop fire. Within the fire perimeter, there is an unburned island near Sugarloaf Mountain that crews will be assessing for potential firing operations. On the south and southwest portions of the fire, nominal fire behavior has been observed and crews will continue to complete mop up and hold control lines, working towards Wolf Mountain and tying line into road systems out to the west. OSFM resources have wrapped up structural triage and prep on the south end and will be assisting wildland partners with mop up along control lines.

Wildland crews will be engaged in mop up throughout the fire area, focusing on heat still holding in the junipers. These trees hold considerable heat in their root systems and make them susceptible to torching. By addressing these types of hazards, the fire line becomes more secure and long-term stability on the incident is improved.

Overnight, resources focused on maintaining the progress achieved during day shift. The fire area received wetting rains until about midnight, resulting in minimal fire behavior that did not challenge any containment lines. Crews monitored, patrolled and held established control lines and worked to keep key access roads open against snags and hazard debris. This has been especially challenging for crews working along FSR 2150, which provides vital access to critical communications infrastructure at Aldrich Lookout. Battle Creek Road had to be shut down due to heavy rainfall during the night.

Yesterday, favorable weather contributed to reduced fire activity, and minimal growth was noted. The Dayville, Morgan Mountain, and Battle Creek areas were prioritized. Near Dayville, OSFM crews mopped 100’ out from structures that were near the fire line. Crews took advantage of cooler temperatures to secure the area behind the community of Dayville, tying together control lines and mopping up, while OSFM crews ensured areas around structures were cool and secure. 

At the slop over near Morgan Mountain, containment lines were extended, and very little fire behavior was observed. As wildland resources installed line and engaged with the fire there, OSFM task forces provided structure protection to homes in the area and assisted with monitoring established line. The area is now about 85% lined. 

Near Battle Creek, heavy equipment was used to improve access points for crews to reach fire within the wilderness area that has been slowly crawling in the lighter fuels. Resources in this area have been hampered by access and have been using both direct and indirect tactics. 

On the southern edge of the fire, crews remained in patrol mode and conducted mop up operations. Due to multiple days of minimal fire growth during the night, several hand crews are being reallocated to day shift to support incident objectives. 

With the reduction in fire activity and the significant preparation work that has been completed, OSFM is able to downsize the number of task forces assigned to the Rail Ridge Fire. Cooperative efforts of resources have contributed to significant progress and fire activity has been minimized in the vicinity of structures. Task forces from Washington state and Yamhill County will return to their home agencies today, leaving six OSFM task forces (30 apparatus), assigned to the fire. These remaining crews will continue to provide around the clock structural protection, with a heavy presence in Dayville, South Fork Road, Fields Creek, and Morgan Mountain areas.

Weather: 

Showers continued into the night, providing wetting rains over the fire. Cool conditions will continue today, with seasonably cool and dry conditions expected across the fire through the coming weekend.

Evacuation notices lifted, rain aids in mop up

MITCHELL, Ore. – All evacuation notices associated with the Shoe Fly Fire have been cancelled by Wheeler County Sheriff, Emergency Management and the Fire Defense Board Chief as of Wednesday morning. The fire continues to hold within containment lines.

Rain and thunderstorms passed over the fire area on Wednesday and overnight into Thursday, dropping nearly a quarter inch of rain. This rain was beneficial in some parts of the fire but may not have penetrated the canopy or through the thick duff layer in other areas. Through the mop up process, firefighters will be looking for smoldering fire in the duff and under other hot spots.

The southeast and northwest portions of the fire are being patrolled for visible signs of smoke or flames along the perimeter. Resources working in this area are also completing suppression repair work. This work is being done for public safety, to protect water quality and limit soil erosion.

Resources are being shifted from other parts of the fire to the Girds Creek and Keyes Creek area along the southwest flank and to the northeast part of the fire to speed up the mop up work on these areas.

Over the next few days, firefighters will focus efforts on attaining 300 feet of cold black adjacent to the fireline and ensuring there are no hazard trees which could fall across the fireline or pose a safety hazard for firefighters or the public. Jackpots of fuel adjacent to the fireline are being masticated to reduce the possibility of embers igniting them in the future.  Wednesday night was the last night shift for the incident. Crews will be reassigned to work the day shift or released from the incident. As containment increases, resources are being released for reassignment to other incidents or to return home.

Summary

Yesterday’s passing weather system provided an opportunity to reevaluate fire behavior and determine operational needs. Fire managers continue to prioritize the minimization of acres burned. With fire behavior moderated by the rain, firefighter operations began shifting from line preparations to repair. However, some work will continue to connect existing segments of fireline. Rain also halted heavy equipment operations, including road repair, in areas where soils were saturated and posed a greater risk to resources than the fire conditions demanded. Where conditions allowed, slash and logs were removed from previously prepped roads.

Red Fire (1,732 acres, 0% containment)

Structure preparations were completed yesterday with the installation of several portable water holding tanks. All deployed structure protection equipment will continue to be checked and maintained in the event of unforeseen changes in fire behavior. Extensive rain halted firefighter operations on the reinforcement of indirect line in the area. The Whitefish Creek Trail was lined with 9,000 feet of hose. This hoselay serves as an indirect line while fire behavior and resource needs in this area are being reevaluated.

208 Fire (8,843 acres, 0% containment)

The fire remains north of Forest Service Road (FSR) 29 where burning operations occurred last Sunday. Fire growth is gradual in the direction of indirect line along FSR 23 to the northwest and FSR 21/2154 to the south. Indirect handline construction meant to protect private timber is complete from FSR 23 to FSR 423.

Moss Mountain Fire (2,133 acres, 8% containment)

Primary and contingency lines along FSR 23, 2120, 490, and 2309 are being patrolled. The focus remains on confinement of the fire's northward spread to minimize burned acreage. Work will proceed today on suppression where needed. Additionally, repair activities will continue as crews evaluate how the rain impacted fire activity.

Chalk Fire (5,987 acres, 86% containment) 
Firefighters remain engaged in repair activities. Crews continue to improve indirect line by removing and chipping vegetation. Additionally, the firefighters will continue to patrol and monitor existing containment lines.

Weather and Fire Behavior

Yesterday, a low-pressure system brought consistent rainfall to the area. On average there was about a 0.50" of rain across the area. This moderated fire behavior by bringing moisture to previously dried fuels. Looking ahead, elevated relative humidity and persistent cloud cover and smoke are expected through early next week. This cooling trend will continue to reduce fire behavior to creeping and smoldering.
