Chiloquin, Ore. – The recent thunderstorms produced some fire starts north of the Copperfield Fire. Crews are being diverted to assist in initial attack on the new fires. In addition, resources will began transitioning to other fires throughout the state, helping in their efforts as resources are limited due to wildfires across the state.
Containment increased to 68%.
Today’s weather calls for continued cooling temperatures and lighter winds. This will help with ongoing mop up efforts and allow crews to continue their push deeper into the black areas around the fire perimeter.

Predicted weather was moderate, allowing crews the opportunity to increase containment, particularly in the areas where there are nearby structures. Overnight, infrared drones identified a few hot spots on the east side of the fire and crews were able to find them and mop up quickly. Crews continued to expand the perimeter depth of the fire in previously burned areas (black line) that are now cold and being mopped up. Overall, containment increased to 43%.
