The fire overnight spread to the top of a steep canyon.
Today the big C-130 tankers are being used on the fire, and a mobile retardant batch plant is now operational at the airport in Blue Canyon, ready to load up helicopter buckets with retardant. 6 helicopters are assigned to the fire today.
One structure was lost yesterday, a 100 year old mining building that was part of the old Pacific Mine on the south end of the fire.
