Thursday, June 25, 9:00 a.m.:  As of late Wednesday, the fire became 95% contained and is still 566 acres. Thanks to the hard work of the crews, there has been no growth of the fire over the last 24 hours.  An overnight infrared flight mapped and identified all the remaining heat sources around the fire. Only one was found along the perimeter. Most of the hot spots were interior, and crews were able to hike in today and continue to suppress these heat sources. The remaining portion of the uncontained perimeter may take another day or so to finalize containment. There is still interior fire and heat. Smoke will be visible. Please do not report.

Because of the continued heat within the fire (verified by the infrared flight), the Bonneville Shoreline, Red Butte, and Dry Gulch Trails will remained closed. City Creek Trail will open Thursday, as there isn’t a threat to that area. Rangers and law enforcement are patrolling the area to catch any trespassers. Due to the progress, the fire will be turned back over to a local Type 4 team today Thursday.  Two crews and multiple engines will remain on scene until full containment, and to assure any interior hot spots are extinguished.

Stay out of the black burn zone!
