#2023 SRF Lightning Complex Informational Meeting
Point Protection for Structures on the 2023 SRF Lightning Complex
Lightning fires:
The south side of the Klamath National Forest received numerous lightning strikes last night. #KlamathNF firefighters responded to multiple smoke reports. Crews were dispatched quickly to check them for validity.
After the firefighters arrived on site, the following are the results of what they found.
The Deacon Fire east of Sawyers Bar was a single tree with minimum ground fire. This fire was staffed last night. No report of the size at this time of this report.
The Hickey Fire, southeast of Sawyers Bar, was spotted but it was too late for jumpers to safely jump. They have plans to jump this morning. We will give a size up once they are able to get information into us.
The Creole Fire near the Russian Trailhead will be checked again this morning. We will post updated information when reports are received.
A couple more smoke reports came in from the Eddy Gulch Lookout. One near Tanner Peak and another near Idyllwild Campground. They were spotted after dark. Crews will check them this morning.
The KNF has aerial recon available to check on these fires and to seek out any more that have not been reported.
Additional posts will occur as more information becomes available.
