ODF release – In coordinated effort, the Deschutes and Jefferson County Sheriff’s offices have lifted all evacuations around the Grandview Fire area. Sisters, ORE. – The Grandview fire remains at 6,032 acres. Containment on the fire is now 72%. Fire crews working inside the fire line are pushing mop up toward the objective of 300 feet. Crews are hauling fire hose back to camp, leaving the main hose lines in place for use as ODF IMT 2 plans to hand over command to a type 4 team on Thursday. Snags are a continuing concern around the perimeter of the fire and felling crews are working to remove them to reduce risk of hazards to the other crews and the public. As containment on the fire grows, we would like to thank the public for remaining vigilant and for obeying forest closures put into place on the Deschutes National Forest and the Ochoco National Forest Crooked River National Grasslands. Temperatures over the fire will be in the lower 90’s with winds out of the NW at 5-10 mph.
