The Mendocino NF has issued a Forest Order closing the S. End
of the Forest to public use.
July 9 Forest Order
HQ’s on scene reporter, Jeff Applegate, says he just heard
that the Fouts Springs area is looking good.
The fire is slowly moving south and east. It is currently bumping Gilmore Ridge.
Let's remember that off-road champions Phil Ray and Taz Harvey have property and homes that are still in harms way. Also, Jeff Applegate and other OHV stakeholders could be in harms way too.
As many of you know, there is a lot of fuel on the forest
floor including downed trees from the 2001 Trough Fire.
Good news on the Fouts Springs OHV Camping/Staging Area being safe so
far!
PS-Let's remember that off-road champions Phil Ray and Taz Harvey have property and homes that are still in harms way. Also, Jeff Applegate and other OHV stakeholders could be in harms way too if the winds pick up this afternoon!
