Wildland Fire Updates 8/12/2021

Good afternoon everyone! We have some more updates for you as well as some photos sent in from the Engine Crew Members on E-603.

  • E-604 – Has recently made its third crew swap, and is currently on the Richard Springs Fire.  

  • E-603 – Has been busy with several small Initial Attack fires in the CLO area of Montana.  That area just received some rain, and they are currently assigned to the Richard Springs Fire as well.  This crew will swap on Sunday.

  • Independence 01 – Currently assigned to Trestle Creek, and has been for the past several days.  They are anticipated to be flying home on Saturday (8/14/2021).

  • Anthracite – Still assigned to Harris Mountain.  That fire is mostly contained, and they will most likely be reassigned.

  • Independence 02 – Flying out today (8/12/2021) to replace Independence 01.

  • Blue IMT – Has since turned the Snake River Complex over to the local unit and has taken over Cougar Rock Complex.

All of the following photos are from E-603's crew, enjoy!
