But those are burning slowly and not progressing.The remainder of the uncontained fire perimeter is in inaccessible terrain (100% slope) and is not safe for firefighters to work. The fire area is being flown daily with infrared to detect activity. There has been no fire movement reported for several days. Significant demobilization of resources is planned for October 11. Inciweb will be updated on October 11, at approximately 6:00pm.
